The Thing About Children
The thing about children
Is you never outgrow um
Like a warm summer breeze
That rustles the leaves
And the thing about children
Is there always amazing
With a wink of an eye
I do as I please
And the thing about children
Is they’ll never leave you
And when they are gone
They’re always around
They give all so freely
Then walk away happy
And give you a gift
That’s so hard to be found
And the thing about children
Is it ain’t always easy
Got to stay on your toes
From morning till night
But you know its all worth it
When you hear happy voices
And a kiss and a hug
For you turn out the lights
But you have to protect them
From the cold winter nights
Say a prayer in the dark
To be shown the light
With a little caring and little preparing
Your life and there’s
Might work out all right
