Hey Little One
Hey little one with such golden hair
let’s play the whole day through
find a swing and touch the sky
pretend we are brave tigers on the prowl
riding your magic carpet
You start every day on the run
count ants among your best friends
and wonder where they sleep at night
smelling every sunflower tip-toe high
your big sister is your hero every day
For you everyone deserves a second chance
to join in your strawberry dance
don’t understand no in any way
whispering your silent secrets to Mr Teddy Bear
knowing he understands every word
Sleep safely for tonight you fly with Peter Pan
dancing with Tinker-Bell across never-never land
your treasure chest full of joy and laughter
listening intently to nightly fairy tales
believing every story totally true…again and again
You dare dragons to play hide and seek
charming the world with a wink and a smile
so unconcerned with tomorrow
racing the wind you are the master of your day
I wish the world could be more like you
IRISH
