A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes

"A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes" is a song written and composed by Mack David, Al Hoffman and Jerry Livingston for the 1950 film "Cinderella". In it Cinderella (Ilene Woods) encourages her animal friends to never stop dreaming, and that theme continues throughout the entire story. It was also nominated for AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs, as one of 15 from Disney and one of 17 from an animated movie to be nominated. The ones that eventually made the cut was: "When You Wish Upon A Star" (#7), "Some Day My Prince Will Come" (#19), "Beauty and the Beast" (#62) and "Hakuna Matata" (#99).

Lyrics
Movie Version= A dream is a wish your heart makes 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

(Speaking) Oh that clock! Killjoy. I hear you, Come on, Get up you say!. Even he bosses me around. Well, there's one thing. They can't order me to stop dreaming. And perhaps someday...

(Singing) The dream that I wish Will Come true

La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da Hmm-hmm-hmm-hmm-hmmm-hmm-hmm-hmm La-da-la-da-da-da-da-da-dee Hmm-mm-hm-mm-mm-hmm-hmm-hmm La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dee La-da-da-da-daaa-da-da-da Hmm-hmm-hmm-hm-hmm-hmm-hm-hmm

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 fast asleep In dreams you will lose your heartache Whatever you wish for, you keep
 * -|Linda Ronstadt's Version=

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

A dream is a wish your heart makes A dream is a wish your heart makes 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
