Lyrics:

When you wish upon a star
makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you

If your heart is in your dream
no request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star as dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
the sweet fulfilment of their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star your dream comes true

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
the sweet fulfilment of their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star your dream comes true
