A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes
Disney · Cinderella [1950]
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you 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
[clock:] dong
[Cinderella:] Oh that clock
[c:] dong
[Cinderella:] oh, kill joy
[c:] dong
[Cinderella:] I hear you
Come on, Get up you say
[c:] dong
[Cinderella:] time to start another day
[c:]dong
[Cinderella:] even he orders me around
[c:]dong
[Cinderella:] well, there's one thing
they cant order me to stop dreaming
and maybe someday....
[singing:]The dreams that i wish will come true
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
the dream that you wish will come true
