THREE COINS IN THE FOUNTAIN (THREE COINS IN THE FOUNTAIN, 1954)

These girls in love never realize that they should be honestly dishonest instead of being dishonestly honest.”
- John Frederick Shadwell

Three hopeless romantic American girls set their hope in finding true love by throwing coins each and wishing in Rome’s dazzling Trevi Fountain. A romcom in the ‘50’s. The song won the best original song at the Oscars.

Three coins in a fountain

Each one seeking happiness
Thrown by three hopeful lovers
Which one will the fountain bless?

Three hearts in a fountain
Each heart longing for its home
There they lie in the fountain
Somewhere in the heart of Rome

Which one will the fountain bless?
Which one will the fountain bless?

Three coins in a fountain
Through the ripples, how they shine
Just one wish will be granted
One heart will wear a Valentine

Make it mine
Make it mine
Make it mine
