I Wish I Were Aladdin 1935

Mmmm, Mmmm,
My heart's unfurled about,
I've built my world about you.
Mmmm, Mmmm,
You're all I've ambition for
Here's what I keep wishing for
all thru the day.

I wish I were Aladdin
How lucky I would be
I'd rub my little lamp
and wish that you would
fall in love with me.
I wish I were a Winkle
who slept for twenty years,
Imagine twenty years
to dream of you
would that be heavenly!
If I could cast a magic spell
when I feel blue
I'd wave my wand
and call for wonderful you.
But if I were certain
we'd never ever part
I wouldn't want
to be Aladdin
I wouldn't need
to be Rip van Winkle
Just want to be
the only one
in your heart.

I wish I were Aladdin
How lucky I would be
I'd rub my little lamp
and wish that you would
fall in love with me.
I wish I were a Winkle
who slept for twenty years,
Imagine twenty years
to dream of you
would that be heavenly!
If I could cast a magic spell
when I feel blue
I'd wave my wand
and call for wonderful you.
But if I were certain
we'd never ever part
I wouldn't want
to be Aladdin
I wouldn't need
to be Rip van Winkle
Just want to be
the only one
in your heart.
