I'm Wishing

"I'm Wishing" is the first song from the Disney's 1937 animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and by extension, the first song in the Disney Animated Canon. It was written by composer Frank Churchill and lyricist Larry Morey and performed by Adriana Caselotti as Snow White.
In the film, Snow White sings it as she works in the courtyard of the Queen's castle. The Prince overhears her and listens for a while before climbing over the wall to meet her and sing "One Song".

Film version=
Snow White:
We are standing by a wishing well
Make a wish into the well, that's all you have to do
And if you hear it echoing
Your wish will soon come true
I'm wishing (I'm wishing)
For the one I love
To find me (To find me)
Today (Today)
I'm hoping (I'm hoping)
And I'm dreaming of
The nice things (The nice things)
He'll say (He'll say)
(vocalizing)
I'm wishing (I'm wishing)
For the one I love
To find me (To find me)
Today
Prince: Today
|-|Sheet music version=
It's so sad and lonely, Wishing Well,
Longing for someone you never see.
Make him love me only, Wishing Well,
Won't you grant this favor to me?
I'm wishing
For the one I love
To find me
Today.
I'm hoping
And I'm dreaming of
The nice things,
He'll say.
Tell me, Wishing Well,
Will my wish come true?
With your magic spell,
Won't you tell my loved one what to do?
I'm wishing
For the one I love
To find me
Today.
