In a child's eye there's something I hope someday you'll know A friend's dedication, it's something to behold A mother's smile, it makes everything all right To a woman's caring hand I'll be holding on tonight When you got love and we got family keep 'em close and don't forget To hold them right there in your heart When you got love and family To my father's stern direction And the lessons that he taught My Grandmothers affection And the faith I always fought To the kids at the shows And the way you sing it back at us And the boys down the park When we were young and life was nuts (Chorus) To all the single parents Who keep holding down the fort To all you sons and daughters Be thankful for what you've got To everyone with no one May good fortune turn your way To everyone whose had someone Remember them today (Chorus)
