THE UNRELEASED & RELATED

Then I Made A Wish (The Cellarmen, 1968)

Track Notes:
** Written by Bob Dorsey and Harry Simon, the Cellarmen would record, and to a certain extent rearrange, this somewhat psychadelic piece at Jody Records in Brooklyn. This song would be the B-side of the privately pressed Jody 45. Like the A-side track, "I Found You (The One I Adore)", this track would be produced by Vincent Vallis and Henry De Meo with Henry again adding a three-note trumpet part...


[Verse]
When I awoke at dawn
I knew not what to do
It was such a beautiful morning
My thoughts, they wandered to you

[Verse]
The rising sun, so bright
Filled my room with breaking light
And everywhere I looked
Appeared lovely visions of you

[Chorus]
And then I made a wish
Inside was only suspense
That all these visions seen
Would never ever end

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse]
So now a wish I made
I'd like to gladly say
This should be for me a very
Remarkably happy day

A remarkably happy day
A remarkably happy day
A remarkably happy day
