Stories
When l get to know him
We'll find more things to say
One day l will reach him
There has to be a way
Everyone needs someone
He must need someone too
When l get to know him better
Here's what l will do
l'll read him stories
From picture books all filled with wonder
Magic worlds where the impossible
Becomes the everyday
We'll find a mountaintop
And some moonbeams to sit under
l'll lead because l know the way
So much to discover
l do it all the time
l could live inside bright pages
Where the words all rhyme
We will slay the dragons
That still follow him around
And he'll smile Yes, he'll smile
As his dreams leave the ground
Stories and stories
About mermaids, kings and sunken treasure
Magic worlds where the impossible
Becomes the everyday
l know a tiny place
Just a dot too small to measure
l'll take him there
l know the way
Stories about heroes
Who overcame their deepest sorrow
They'll put hope into his heart again
He'll cherish every day
He'll find a better world
And the strength to face tomorrow
l'm sure that when he knows the way
He'll want
To stay
