A dream is a wish
(Yeah, yeah)

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you will loose your heartache
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
A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're feeling small
Alone in the night you whisper

Thinking no one can hear you at all
You wake with the morning sunlight
To find fortune that is smiling on you

Don't let your heart be filled with sorrow
For all you know tomorrow
The dream that you wish will come true

When you can dream then you can start
A dream is a wish you make with your heart
When you can dream then you can start
A dream is a wish you make with your heart

A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you will loose your heartache
Whatever you wish for you keep

You wake with the morning sunlight
To find fortune that is smiling on you
Don't let your heart be filled with sorrow
For all you know tomorrow

The dream that you wish will come true
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
The dream that you wish will come true

When you can dream then you can start
When you can dream then you can start
When you can dream then you can start
A dream is a wish you make with your heart

When you can dream then you can start
A dream is a wish you make with your heart

    The woman who sang all the songs for Cinderella has the best voice of any other disney movie BY FAR. I love to listen to all the songs from Cinderella just to hear her voice. Well, actually her and the lady that sang for Sleeping Beauty have the best voices. They don't make movies like this anymore.

    This song is played after the spectacular fireworks display, Wishes, at the Magic Kingdom. Oh, how I love it there! True magic really does exist.

    naturally, this song reminds me of a boy I like. we were talking about something, and he said "i wish.." and I started singing this song, and he smiled, and said "that was perfect." aww.

    This is the song I am walking down the aisle to at my wedding...not the recorded version from the movie, however. I just love the fairy tale of Cinderella. In fact, I was so obessed with always making belive that I was Cinderella when i was little that my mom was concerened that I felt she was over working me...lol! This is absolutey my favorite song ever!
