The Curious Child

Sunlight
Sunlight drifting in my window pane.
Looks like I've lost
But really everything I've gained.

"What is love?"
Asked the innocent child
With big blue eyes
And a curious smile.
"Love is when
You share that first kiss
And hear a beautiful song
That goes like this:
La la la da da dum
La da da dum la dum.
La la la da da dum."
Sang the freckled boy.

Flowers,
Flowers growing in the grassy field.
I dance through them.
Flying petal cause my sorrow to yield.

"What is love?"
Asked the innocent child
With big blue eyes
And a curious smile.
"Love is when
You find the one
Who's beside you through all
And this song is sung:
La la la da da dum.
La da da dum la dum.
La la la da da dum."
Sang the handsome man.

Moonlight,
Moonlight glowing in the night.
The sun is gone,
But turned on his faithful nightlight.

"What is love?"
Asked the innocent child
With big blue eyes
And a curious smile.
"Love is this,"
Spoke the old man.
He held open his arms
And the boy took his hand
And they sang:
"La la la da da dum.
La da da dum la dum.
La la la da da dum."
Sang the best of friends.
