Let the Child Dream
Children have a purity
A belief adults have lost
Santa, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy
They are all really real
At least to a child's mind
So please forget about being adult
It doesn't matter how old they are
Let the children believe
Tell them the stories they want to hear
Maybe make up some good ones of your own
Just don't tell them the truth
They will grow up soon enough
And that won't be as much fun
