come out and play

don't just stay here in the corner of the room
please come out and play
i wanna hear you sing

about the rain, about the summer
about the wind, about the flowers
there's so much to see
if you just come with me

and i will hold your hand
you know that home is where
the heart is you and me
we'll be wild and free

in the night
we'll be bright lights
though we be blind
we'll be alright

when there's a storm
there'll be rainbows after
all is said and done
we'll be heroes everyone

so don't be afraid to let it go
let's run into the wind and let it
blow your mind
it's more beautiful
than you'll ever know

and don't be shy just let it show
your heart is a book don't let it
close inside
there're nothing you have to hide

for i will find you
if life forgets you
so don't you worry
there's no hurry it's hardly
closer to the morning
the stars are shining
and though it's cold outside
i'll be right beside you

so don't just stay here
in the corner of the room
please come out and play
i wanna hear you sing

when you wake

i look into your bedroom door
and i don't make a sound
i see you curled up in your blanket
with that peaceful smile

sleep my little child
and the world can't do you harm
sleep my little child
and tomorrow will be a charm
and when you wake
i will be around

there's so many things i wanna say to you
but just so little time
seems like yesterday you were still learning to walk but
now it's time to fly


sleep my little child
and the world can't do you harm
sleep my little child
and tomorrow will be a charm
and when you wake
i will be around

to watch you fly
to watch you fly
away across the sky
and when the nights they grow cold
you know where to go
when you feel all alone
you can always come home

where you'll be
safe and sound
and when you wake
i will be around
