Nice Things
03:03
|
|||
Thank you is a nice thing to say
You can find a time to say it almost every day
Can you think of all the wonderful ways
Of saying thank you
A smile is a nice thing to see
I love to see one when you’re looking at me
I know you understand how good it can be
To see a smile
A hug is a nice thing to feel
Sometimes it’s good to wrap your arms around something real
It makes you feel lovely from your head to your heels
When you hug
I love you is a nice thing to hear
So when you say it be loud and clear
Look around and find someone dear
And say I love you
say I love you
i love you

There Ya Go
02:53
|
|||
There ya go clouds
there ya go sun
east to west
til the day is done
shining, shining on everyone
There ya go birds
there ya go bees
humming and singing
in the flowers and trees
singing, singing for everyone
There ya go clover
there ya go trees
with leaves turning over
in the whispering breeze
falling from branches
with the gentlest sound
quietly spinning
til they rest on the ground
falling, falling for everyone
There ya go stars
there ya go moon
hanging above us
like a hot air balloon
glowing, glowing for everyone

In the Ocean With You
03:41
|
|||
Let’s grab our boards and head to the shore
We won’t need a map since we’ve been there before
It’s a heartfelt devotion we have for the ocean
We’ll be in the water again
There’s nothing better than surfing together
Out there in the ocean with you
We’ll paddle out to sea. That’s where we wanna be
We’ll find the perfect place for the best waves by the jetty
We can wait for a good one in the warm summer sun
All the while by the side of a friend
There’s nothing better than surfing together
Out there in the ocean with you
And when we go home at the end of the day
We’ll dream of our fun in the waves
Our worries and our frowns we left back in town
We’re on top of the world and we’re never coming down
We can live in our wetsuits because they are the best suits
I never want summer to end
There’s nothing better than surfing together
Out there in the ocean with you
There’s nothing better than surfing together
Out there in the ocean with you
Out there in the ocean with you
Out there in the ocean with you

Sunny Boy
02:17
|
|||
You dream of me, Sunny Boy, and I dream of you
You sleep tight when you’re next to me and I sleep tight, too
You were never meant to stand up tall
You were always bumping into the wall
Every step you take might end in a fall
But you take it anyway
You dream of me, Sunny Boy, and I dream of you
You sleep tight when you’re next to me and I sleep tight, too
I can hear you crying, here I am
And I know you’re frightened, here I am
But you’re not alone, cause here I am
I can stay with you a while
You dream of me, Sunny Boy, and I dream of you
You sleep tight when you’re next to me and I sleep tight, too
I will wait for you, just take your time
You can take forever, I don’t mind
If you never get there, we’ll be fine
We can try another day

Let's Go to the City
04:17
|
|||
Let’s go to the city
The days are fun and the nights are pretty
It is certain to me that we should be in the city
We can go to the museum
There’s lots things there and I want to see ‘em
We can spend the day
What do you say to the city?
Bumping around in the subway car
Keep your eyes open and see where you are
with every turn there’s something new
Something else to do in the city
We could visit our friends
We just can’t wait to see em again
We’re gonna skip down the street with our jubilant feet
in the city
We’ve been writing them letters
But seeing their smiles is always better
They can take us around their wonderful town
In the city
Bumping around in the subway car
Keep your eyes open and see where you are
with every turn there’s something new
Something else to do in the city
We can visit our cousins
You can count on them for hugs by the dozen
And a wonderful time, rain or come shine
in the city
We can go to the park
Play around until the sky gets dark
But then on come the lights shining and bright
in the city
Heading on over to the record store
We’ve got lots of good music but there’s room for more
There’s a place round the corner that makes yummy pastries
Let’s take a stop and get something tasty
On the way back come on over and cuddle
As we listen to the music in the subway tunnel
So many people so many faces
Coming and going to so many places
Bumping around in the subway car
Keep your eyes open and see where you are
with every turn there’s something new
Something else to do in the city

Autumn
02:00
|
|||
The autumn leave are falling down
Every time the wind blows
The days are growing shorter now
We’re putting on our winter clothes
And in the chilly autumn air
We’ll meet somewhere
We can warm our hands and your hearts
And as the nights grow cold and dark
We’ll fill our world with stars
stars
stars
We’ll pass the time with all our friends
And soon it will be springtime

Top of the Hill
03:49
|
|||
Snow fell all through the night
We woke in the morning to the loveliest sight
And everyone was staying home
We got right up and hopped out of bed
We put on our snowsuits and gathered our sleds
With hands in our mittens and hats on our heads
We’re ready so off we go
Climb on up to the top of the hill
and then slide back down and pick ourselves up again
Climb back up to the top of the hill
and then slide back down and pick ourselves up again
This time is silver and gold
We could stay here forever, we don’t mind the cold
Let’s give it all the best we can
Each day we do what we have to do
Let’s take the time to do what we want to do
It’s nice to have this time that I can be with you
I love it when you hold my hand
Climb on up to the top of the hill
and then slide back down and pick ourselves up again
Climb back up to the top of the hill
and then slide back down and pick ourselves up again
Someone came around and asked us to go
We weren’t supposed to sled here and we didn’t know
But the whole wide world is covered in snow
We’ll find another place instead
Climb back up to the top of the hill
and then slide back down and pick ourselves up again
Climb back up to the top of the hill
and then slide back down and pick ourselves up again

Nico the Penguin
03:38
|
|||
Nico the Penguin lived by the sea
In the snowy Antarctic with her family
She liked to go wandering away from the flock
Looking of pebbles and round little rocks
But the sky’s getting dark
Oh where did you roam
So hurry little Nico, it’s time to go home
Sliding down icebergs she dives in the waves
The sea’s full of wonders and Nico is brave
She swims in the ocean with a giant blue whale
As tall ships pass over with billowing sails
But the sky’s getting dark
Oh where did you roam
So hurry little Nico, it’s time to go home
She once saw a narwhal who strayed far from home
While Nico was looking for round little stones
It told her of summers when the sun shone so bright
And the sky danced with rainbows through the long winter night
But the sky’s getting dark
Oh where did you roam
So hurry little Nico, it’s time to go home
It’s time to return to your father and mother
And snuggle up warm with your little baby brother
Back with your family all safe and sound
Tell them the stories and show what you’ve found
But the sky’s getting dark
Oh where did you roam
So hurry little Nico, it’s time to go home

Dodo ninette, à la violette.
Endormez moi cette enfant, jusqu'à l'âge de vingt ans.
Quand les vingt ans seront passés, nous irons la marier.
Les petits poissons qui sont dans l'eau,
nagent, nagent, nagent.
Les petits poissons qui sont dans l'eau,
nagent, comme il faut!
Les grands et les petits, nagent, nagent, nagent.
Les grands et les petits, nagent, comme il faut!
Dodo, l'enfant do. L'enfant dormira bien vite.
Dodo, l'enfant do. L'enfant dormira bientôt.
Dodo ninette, à la violette.
Endormez moi cette enfant, jusqu'à l'âge de vingt ans.
Quand les vingt ans seront passés, nous irons la marier.

Rowan Tree

Come with me to the Rowan Tree
There’ll be games to play and friends to see
Bring your barefoot feet and you’re favorite song
And we’ll stay there all day long
Come with me to the Holly Tree
There’ll be joyful times and good company
Bring your wild ideas and some games to play
And we’ll stay til the end of the day
Come with me to the Hazel Tree
We can make our home beneath it’s emerald leaves
We can play in the rain and dance in the sun
And we’ll play til the day is done
Come with me to the Willow Tree
We can stay here through the night so comfortably
See the moon up above and the stars in the sky
And I’ll stay right by your side
We can dream of our days outside

See Your Smile Again
02:57
|
|||
Sometimes I’m sad and I don’t know why
Sometimes I don’t want to but I have to say goodbye
But it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again
Yeah it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again
Sometimes nothing’s going my way
Sometimes I want everyone to listen
But no one pays attention to anything I say
But it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again
Yeah it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again
Sometimes I wanna go outside and play
But if the weather is frightening
Thunder and lightening
I might just have to save it for another day
Sometimes when it’s cloudy I wish the sky was blue
Sometimes when we’re apart It breaks my heart that I can’t be with you
But it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again
Yeah it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again
Yeah it only happens for a little while
I know real soon I’m gonna see your smile again

Baby's Here With Me
02:22
|
|||
There’s no better place to be than under this evergreen
dreaming our day away in the shadowy breeze
The cats are being lazy, the dogs are in the daisies
And I’ve got my baby here with me
Dandelion meadow, bright and happy yellow
Makes me feel so mellow and free
The birds, they all are singin’ of the happy times we’re bringin’
Now I’ve got my baby here with me
We can keep on swaying in the hammock where we’re laying
It’s perfect for a Sunday reverie
We’ve got nowhere we’re going, so we’ll watch the flowers growin’
‘Cause I’ve got my baby here with me
I’ve got my baby here with me
