Let them be All they asked for was To let them be Let them live in their Happy go lucky worlds Where Santa is real Blessings from tooth fairys Matter more than all the expensive gifts They could ever get Let them live in their Dream worlds Where rainbows come From pots of gold And rivers flow With chocolate syrups Let them be Where they are And who they are Why strip them Of their innocence Why drag them in the Adult world already Why give them bitter experiences Of the real world already Why tell them that as you Grow up things will get tougher Why tell them that to live a life You will have to fight for yourself Why scare them about their own safety Or tell them that at any point in life They might find themselves in a nuclear war Between countries Let them be Where they are Let them dream of a happy Joyful world Where there is endless love And the smallest amount Of hate Let them be How they want to be This is a request to everybody who Know what I mean Just let them be Just let them be
