To Love A Child

Said the older to the younger giraffe

Do you need someone to care for?

Said the older to the younger giraffe

I'm available and therefore

Hand in hand, they both went down

Spend the day in jungle town

Anything that they can do, humans can do too

As one human to another, I'd like to question you

(What's the question?)

If it takes the sun and the rain to make a tree grow

(That's a good one)

If it takes the moon and the tide to make the sea flow

What does it take to love a child? (To love a child)

To love a child (to love a child)

It starts with a smile and after a while a hug and a kiss

It takes no more than this

To love a child (to love a child)

Hmm, hmm, hmm (ooh-ooh-ooh)

Said the bigger to the smaller raccoon

"Do you need someone to need you"

Said the smaller to the bigger raccoon

"If you need me, I will follow"

(Off they went to climb a tree)

(They spent the day most happily)

(Anything that they can do, humans can do too)

As one human to another, I'd like to question you

If it takes the sun and the rain to make a tree grow

(To make a tree grow)

If it takes the moon and the tide to make the sea flow

(To make the sea flow)

What does it take to love a child? (To love a child)

To love a child (to love a child)

It starts with a smile and after a while a hug and a kiss

It takes no more than this

To love a child (to love a child)

To love a child (ooh-ooh-ooh)

To love a child
