"When I get to know him

We'll find more things to say

One day I will reach him

There has to be a way

Everyone needs someone

He must need someone, too

When I get to know him better

Here's what I will do

I'll read him stories

From picture books

All filled with wonder

Magic worlds where

The impossible

Becomes the everyday

We'll find a mountaintop

And some moonbeams

To sit under

I'll lead because I know the way

So much to discover

I do it all the time

I could live inside bright pages

Where the words all rhyme

We will slay the dragons

That still follow him around

And he'll smile, yes he'll smile

As his dreams leave the ground

Stories and stories

'Bout mermaids, kings

And sunken treasure

Magic worlds where the impossible

Becomes the everyday

I know a tiny place

Just a dot, too small to measure

I'll take him there

I know the way

Stories 'bout heroes

Who overcame their deepest sorrow

They'll put hope into his heart again

He'll cherish every day

He'll find a better world

And the strength to face tomorrow

I'm sure that when he knows the way

He'll want to stay"
