Some come away with an armload of hay One sails to market on her sea Some like to say they'll do it yesterday One starts his car without a key Some come to play And they throw it all away Love our children forever Love our children forever Some cut the trees and stack them in the sand One shoots up into the sky Some do what they please The world's at their command Some come to nothing by and by Some come to play And they throw it all away Love our children forever Love our children forever Love our children forever Love our children forever Love our children forever Love our children forever Love our children forever
