DUSTY SPRINGFIELD - Wishin’ & Hopin’ lyrics

(burt bacharach / hal david)

Wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'

Plannin' and dreamin' each night of his charms

That won't get you into his arms

So if you're lookin' to find love you can share

All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and love him

And show him that you care

Show him that you care just for him

Do the things he likes to do

Wear your hair just for him, 'cause

You won't get him

Thinkin' and a-prayin', wishin' and a-hopin'

'cause wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'

Plannin' and dreamin' his kisses will start

That won't get you into his heart

So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is

All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and love him

Yeah, just do it

And after you do, you will be his

You gotta show him that you care just for him

Do the things he likes to do

Wear your hair just for him, 'cause

You won't get him

Thinkin' and a-prayin', wishin' and a-hopin'

'cause wishin' and hopin' and thinkin' and prayin'

Plannin' and dreamin' his kisses will start

That won't get you into his heart

So if you're thinkin' of how great true love is

All you gotta do is hold him and kiss him and squeeze him and love him

Yeah, just do it

And after you do, you will be his

You will be his

You will be his
