Cliff Edwards - When You Wish Upon a Star

    These day, I have often listened to the songs which were sung by Billy Joel, who is my current favorite singer. When You Wish Upon a Star is one of the songs, sung by Billy Joel. I traced the history of the song and knew that the song was not released by Billy Joel. In 1940, the song was written for the Walt Disney's movie, Pinocchio. In the movie, it was sung by Cliff Edwards who is the character of the Jiminy Cricket.





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 dreams
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 through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true

Lyrics

When a star is born, they receive a gift or two
One of them is this, they have the power to make a dream come true

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
Love's sweet fulfillment of their secret longing
 
Like a bolt out of the blue, fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true
 
Ooh, like a bolt out of the blue, fate steps in and I sees you through
When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true, ooh, ooh
