A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes – simplified

A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes

Cinderella, 1950

Mack David, Al Hoffman, Jerry Livingston

Label: RCA Victor Records, EMI

When I was a little girl,

My father used to say,

If trouble ever troubles you

just dream your cares away.

A dream is a wish

your heart makes


When you’re fast asleep


In dreams you will lose your heartaches


Whatever you wish for you keep

Have faith in your dreams and someday


Your rainbow will come smiling through


No matter how your heart is grieving


If you keep on believing


The dream that you wish will come true
