I go to that wishing well
Stand looking down
So many thoughts cloud my brain
As I think about their lives
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true

Each time I leave that wishing well
I hold my head up high
Because I'm not afraid to dream
I'm not afraid to cry
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true

If only there were peace on Earth
(only wishes don't come true)
If only justice walked in blue
(only wishes don't come true)
If only everybody cared
(only wishes don't come true)
If only we could work together
If only we could never say never…
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true

Each time I leave that wishing well
I hold my head up high
I've got a thousand wishes
And I'm not afraid to try
I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true

I tossed a penny in the well
A useless gesture, just as well
I watched it fall
A penny for your thoughts -
Do you care at all?

I think of all the things I'd do
If wishes could come true
