Chorus

If I could make days last forever,

If words could make wishes come true,

I'd save every day like a treasure and then

Again I would spend them with you.

Chorus

If I had a box just for wishes,

And dreams that had never come true,

The box would be empty except for the memory of

How they were answered by you.
