Chorus 1

I wish you bluebirds in the spring,

to give your heart a song to sing

And then a kiss, but more than this,

I wish you love

Chorus 2

And in July, a lemonade

to cool you in some leafy glade

I wish you health, and more than wealth,

I wish you love

Bridge 1

My breaking heart and I agree

that you and I could never be

So with my best, my very best,

I set you free

Chorus 3

I wish you shelter from the storm,

a cozy fire to keep you warm

But most of all, when snowflakes fall,

I wish you love
