Chorus goes If wishes were fishes, I know where I'd be casting my net on the dark rolling sea And if my net's empty when it comes back to shore I'll throw it away and go fishing no more. |

Would appreciate it if someone would search for it & if successful, post something to the thread to bring it up so I can get the words. Thanks. |
