I will always defend you
My spirited child
One day you'll sit quietly
But for now, run wild
Laugh loudly, cry freely
Get mud in your hair
Let rainbows and sparkles
Dictate what you wear
Have no inhibitions
Sing and dance as you please
Come home with wet socks on
And scuffs on your knees
Fizz with electricity
Spin round and round
Do cartwheels and swing
Until the world's upside down
Delight in the lights
When we drive after dark
Keeping waving hello
To every dog in the park
Ask questions, big questions
'What about when we die?'
Look for the loved ones
We lost in the sky
Play fight with your brother
Make him laugh till he cries
And chat from your car seat
The what's, when's and whys
One day you'll care
You'll sit quietly and blush
We'll get there, I know
But for now, what's the rush?
I will always defend you
My spirited child
You're never too much
You're bright, free and wild
