Please Don’t Think It’s Funny

Sometimes you feel like holding your pillow all night long;
Sometimes you hug your teddy bear tightly
He's old but he's still strong
And sometimes you want to snuggle up closely with your own Mom and Dad
At night, you even need the light sometimes
But that's not bad

Please don't think it's funny
When you want an extra kiss
There are lots and lots of people
Who sometimes feel like this

Please don't think it's funny
When you want the ones you miss
There are lots and lots of people
Who sometimes feel like this

It's great to know you're growing up bigger every day
But somehow things you like to remember
Are often put away
And sometimes you wonder over and over
If you should stay inside
When you enjoy a younger toy...
You never need to hide

In the long, long trip of growing
There are stops along the way
For thoughts of all the soft things
And the look of yesterday

For a chance to fill our feelings
With comfort and with ease
And then tell the new tomorrow
"You can come now when you please."

So please don't think it's funny
When you want an extra kiss
There are lots and lots of people
Who sometimes feel like this

Please don't think it's funny
When you want the ones you miss
There are lots and lots of people
Who sometimes feel like this
