I picked a dandelion today, and made a wish for you
A gentle breeze just happened by, the second that I blew
It caught my wish and carried it to where you are, I pray
Please catch it as it passes by, and you will hear it say:

"I wish... that seeds of love grow profusely in your life
and success when you are weeding out adversity and strife.
I wish for sunshine to warm you, and raindrops to quench your thirst
And when you need a friend... I wish you'll call out my name first."

"I wish... for you to always know just how much you're loved
More than all the many stars in Heaven up above
I wish for solid ground beneath your feet, and rainbows in the sky
And when you need a friend... I wish on me you would rely."

"I wish... the butterfly of love not be elusive
and that your love for yourself will be conclusive
I wish you'll always feel free to march to your own drum
And when you think of friends... I wish you'll think of me as one."
