There's something in a simple hug
that always warms the heart.
It welcomes us back home
and makes it easier to part.
A hugs the way to share the joy
and sad times we go through,
Or just a way for friends to say
they like you ‘cuz you're you!
Hugs are meant for anyone
for whom we really care . . .
From your grandma to your neighbor,
or a cuddly teddy bear.
A hug is an amazing thing . . .
it's just the perfect way
To show the love we're feeling
but can't find the words to say.
It's funny how a little hug
makes everyone feel good;
In every place and language,
it's always understood.
And hugs don't need equipment,
special batteries, or parts . . .
Just open up your arms . . .
and open up your hearts!
