There's something in a simple hug
That always warms the heart
It welcomes us back home
And makes it easier to part.
A hug is a way to show the joy
And sad times we go through,
Or just a way for friends to say
"Hey, I like you coz' you're you!"
Hugs are meant for anyone.
For whom we really care,
From your grandma to your daughter,
Or a cauddly teddy bear.
A hug is an amazing thing
It's just the perfect way
To show the love we are feeling
But can't find the words to say.
It's funny how a little hug
Makes everyone feels good
In every place and language
It's always understood.
And hugs don't need new equipment,
Special batteries or parts,
Just open up your arms,
And open up your hearts...
