And I thought it was only my short term memory that was waning as my antiquity waxed. I'd completely forgotten the previous exchange.

Sandy, questions been asked but I don't think any conclusions were made at this thread

Never came to mind to question "heave a sigh and a wish." Here in western Canada, it is often sung by and for homesick Maritimers. The line sings better without "make." Never heard a picky word.

The last line of that chorus has always bothered me. How the heck do you "heave a wish?" Couldn't the line be sung: "Will you ever heave a sigh or MAKE a wish for me?"

Sandy (picky-picky!)
