Bloom

You’ve grown so much It’s time to bloom They’ve helped you up And watched you grow And now it’s all for you to show You were buried in the ground small but full of life They watered you and took you in They didn’t care about where you’d been Everything seemed dangerous but they protected you They helped you grow and know your worth They picked you up out of this earth And when you just looked all around and everything you saw was brown And everything was looking down They showed up and showed you the sun They coaxed you out with love and fun They saw your beauty before you knew They watched and loved you as you grew And now you’re a blossom just waiting to bloom And you’re scared of what the sun will do You’re scared of what they’ll do to you Will they still take care of you they helped and loved you as you grew but will they still be there for you You’ll make them smile and they’ll help you grow They’ve learned to love and hug and always know And even if you can’t see them You’ve got your own supportive stem So bloom, little blossom, don’t be shy Let yourself shine up high in the sky Grow and grow and grow so high And love and live and laugh and cry And show the world what you can do And show them all that they can too And know that sometimes it will rain Might feel like drowning, lots of pain But the rain will help and make you grow And the pain won’t stop but come and go And they’ll always help to grow with you So, little blossom, why don’t you bloom?
