They ask you where do babies come from A thousand who what where and how comes Stare at you like you're dumb When you make up the answers They can make a horse from a chocolate lab Turn your car into a taxi cab For junior pro quarterbacks And tiny ballet dancers Ain't they a trip, kids
Imagine life without toy trains Disneyworld and finger paint Bed time stories, good night kisses Blowin' birthday candle wishes And bein' what we'd like to be again, kids
Some have it all, some don't have a chance And some look up at life without a mom or dad Live with a choice they never had Born in that situation But everyone of them is a gift from god Whether anybody ever tells 'em or not One of a kind little snapshot Of his imagination and they're all his, kids
And they need heroes just like us A little patience and a lotta love Bedtime stories good night kisses Blowin' birthday candle wishes Time to be what they'll never be again, kids
They all pick up where we leave off Take that torch and carry on Live the lessons that we taught Draw up a future tomorrow is, kids
From a twinkle in love's eye To their first fresh breath of life Bed time stories, good night kisses Blowin' birthday candle wishes Time will never fly that fast again They'll always be the best thing that we did, kids
