There's a big blue cloud next to heaven
where all wishes are stored
old an' new . . .
And each day an angel from heaven
looks them through,
picks a few to come true . . .
There are wishes from a kiddies prayer
from folks who are apart,
wished from afar . . .
From a grandma in her rockin' chair
and from a lover's heart,
wished on a star . . .
There's a big blue cloud next to heaven
where all wishes are stored
old an' new . . .
So be patient, leave it to heaven
and your wish will come true
someday soon . . .
