I babysit two three-year-olds.
They always make my day!
You always make our day
Your innocence, care free
You teach us how to live in Now
Though you are only three
You teach us how to love
Without a second thought
And when you sing the world is spring
Our discontent forgot
You teach us how to laugh
No malice clouds your view
You do not will revenge or ill
Your skies are always blue
Dear three-year-old, you teach
Us to believe, not doubt

No malice clouds your view
You do not will revenge or ill
Your skies are always blue
Dear three-year-old, you teach
Us to believe, not doubt
With grin and kiss we learn the bliss
Of what life is about
