Children's Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Here I am for what it's worth
Another well-worn page
But You're all ears so listen up
Hear what I've got to say
Paint in colors bold and bright
Don't fade into the grey
Live every second like it counts
Go ahead and seize the day
Pick up what you want to play
But play it really loud
Break some rules if just to prove
Your head's not in the clouds
When you wake up write down your dreams
Fill your heart and your mind
But don't grow up too fast or close the door
On once upon a time
Don't let another think for you
Or tell you what to learn
Turn away and start a blaze
Be the light that burns
Pick up others when they fall
and be a rock for them
Lean into the wind sometimes
But never break or bend
Love's a rough and rocky road
Better watch your step
But play your cards and guard your heart
You'll wind up with the best
It's never locked, it's always there
You'll never need a key
Come on in and be a kid
You can always ask for me
Always ask for me
