Make a Wish Lyrics by Toni Halliday

Hearts and Handshakes

1989

[Verse 1]
I can take you back however young you are
To some far away place
I can wrap you up and cover you with love
And only get a sweet taste
Don't give up, don't give in
That's not the way for us to begin
Get under control, no room for reason
'Cause reason is a lie now
[Pre-Chorus]
It's not the way that I planned it
I believe
It's just the idea that's planted
And you receive
[Chorus]
Make a wish
And lock it away
Save it up for a rainy day
You're my wish
Not far away
I'll save you up for a rainy day
[Verse 2]
Should we go beyond the sentimental dream
And find what's ahead of us
Don't get fresh, don't get smart
That's not the way to get a good start
Make it understood there's air to breathe in
If breathing is a let down
[Pre-Chorus]
That's the way that I planned it
To deceive
And now the idea is planted
Do you believe?
[Chorus]
Make a wish
And lock it away
Save it up for a rainy day
You're my wish
Not far away
I'll save you up for a rainy day
[Pre-Chorus]
That's the way that I planned it
To deceive
And now the idea is planted
Do you believe?
[Chorus]
(Save it up) make a wish
And lock it away (save it up)
Save it up for a rainy day
(Save it up) you're my wish
Not far away (save it up)
I'll save you up for a rainy day
