(Jule Styne/Sammy Cahn)

I believe, I believe, I believe in wishing wells,
But I also believe in a lot of things, things the daisy tells,
I believe, I believe that a four-leaf clover brings,
Lots of luck, lots of joy, lots of happiness, I believe those things.
And when it's Christmas time I believe in Santa Claus,
Why do I believe, I guess that I believe because
I believe, I believe, I believe that dreams come true,
If you wish for a dream by a wishing well,
Don't tell your wish or you'll break the spell,
It may sound na‹ve, but that's what I believe.

And when it's Christmas, I try to believe in Santa Claus,
Why do I believe, I guess that I believe because
I believe, I believe, I do believe that dreams come true,
And if you wish for a dream by the wishing well,
Don't you tell the wish or you'll break the spell,
It may sound naive, but that's what I happen to believe.
