 Drop a coin in the wishing well

Just watch it fall

Listen out for the little splash

And the echo call

I close my eyes and wish...

I wish for you!

Blow the candles on the cake

Squeeze your eyes tight

Ignore the smell of burning wax

Scream with delight

I close my eyes and wish...

I wish for you!

Watch the tail of shooting star

Flame across the sky

You get to wish on it

Heavens teardrop passing by

I close my eyes and wish...

I wish for you!

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

Throw in some earth

I wish with all my heart

For what its worth

I close red eyes and wish...

I wish for you...
