I wish, I wish, with all of my heart,
Wherever we are, we're never apart -
Through grasslands and oceans and small mountain streams
You're here, you're home, in my arms and my dreams.
I wish, I wish upon a lonely star
I'll cross many mountains to be where you are,
In life, in death and time's final song,
We shall dance in the moonlight all summer long.
I wish, I wish upon a wishing well
Our tale be written where legends dwell
A tale of joy, a tale of love
A tale for the earth and sky above.
I wish, I wish, of so many things
As life passes by in its wanderings -
And I place my flowers upon your grave:
A tale and a wish I can no longer save.
