A Simple Hug

Hold me close
There's something in a simple hugthat always warms the heart,
It welcomes us back home
and makes it easier to part
A hug is a way to share the joy
and sad times we go through,
or just a way for friends to say
they like you 'cause you're you
Hugs are meant for anyone
For whom we really care,
from your grandma to your neighbor,
or a cuddly teddy bear
A hug is an amazing thing
It's just the perfect way
To show the love we're feeling
But can't find the words to say
It's funny how alittle hug
makes everyone feel 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.
