I know I may be wishing
On a world
That may never be
But I'll keep on wishing

No matter how hopeless
Or foolish
It may seem
I'll keep on wishing

I'll toss my coins in the fountain
Look for clovers in grassy lawns
Search for shooting stars in the night
Cross my fingers
And dream on

I know I may be dreaming
Of a world
Far from present day reality
I'll keep on dreaming

No matter
How unrealistic
Or naive
It may seem
Always keep dreaming
Toss your coins in the fountain
Look for clovers in grassy lawns
Search for shooting stars in the night
Cross your fingers
And dream on

We must always keep thinking
Of the world
As a place of infinite possibilities
Always keep thinking

No matter
How hopeless
Or foolish
It may seem
Always keep thinking

Toss our coins in the fountain
Look for clovers in grassy lawns
Search for shooting stars in the night
Cross our fingers
And dream on

I'll keep on wishing

We must always keep dreaming
Of a world
With equality and justice
Thinking
There could be a world
Without poverty and sickness
Wishing of a world
Without hunger and homelessness
Dream of a world
Where all people live in peace
Dreaming
Of a world
Dreaming
On a world
