Sun in my Heart
03:23
|
|||
|
Well I was alone, and I was down
I went through life, with a big old frown
And then one day, you came my way
Made my life sunny, and chased the clouds away
And if you should ever get to leaving
Well I ask just one thing of you
That I can keep a little of your Sun in my Heart
So my skies will always be blue
Well the Spring is pretty, with the flowers all in bloom
And the long Summer days are lovely too
And in the cold of Fall and Winter,
well I know I’ll be keeping warm with you
And if you should ever get to leaving
Well I ask just one thing of you
That I can keep a little of your Sun in my Heart
So my skies will always be blue
And if you should ever get to leaving
Well I ask just one thing of you
That I can keep a little of your Sun in my Heart
So my skies will always be blue
May I keep a little of your Sun in my Heart,
so my skies will always be blue

Into The Woods
02:08

Whether it’s sunny or whether it’s cold
If there’s rain or if there’s snow
We wear our comfy clothes and we’re ready, oh –
Into the woods we go.
In forests and fields, we love to play out here,
In camp and on our walks we are full of cheer,
Every day we play and we’re kind to our friends,
And the next time we’re here we do it all again.
Whether it’s sunny or whether it’s cold
If there’s rain or if there’s snow
We wear our comfy clothes and we’re ready, oh –
Into the woods we go.
Sometimes we build campfires, and brew a cup of tea,
We make dens out of sticks, and we love to climb trees,
We come to know the wildlife that lives all around,
And at the end of our adventures, together we feel proud.
Whether it’s sunny or whether it’s cold
If there’s rain or if there’s snow
We wear our comfy clothes and we’re ready, oh –
Into the woods we go.

Little Squirrel
02:18
|

|
Oh little Squirrel - Oh little Squirrel
Oh little Squirrel, I want to climb like you
To the - tops of the trees, Oh what a view
You see the whole of the forest, All the way around
And we just watch you, From down here on the ground.
Oh little Squirrel, How do you climb so well?
You’ve got - sharp claws
And your - bushy tail
And your clever nose, helps you find
The Autumn acorns that you hide.
Oh little Squirrel - Oh little Squirrel
You are so brave, climbing high in the trees
Even when the branches, are dancing in the breeze
You live in the treetops, in a home called a drey
And there you raise your family, in that good old Squirrel way.
Oh little Squirrel - Oh little Squirrel
Oh little Squirrel - Oh little Squirrel
Oh little Squirrel, I want to climb like you
To the - tops of the trees, Oh what a view
You see the whole of the forest, All the way around
And we just watch you, From down here on the ground.

Snail's Trail
02:04
|
|||
|
I was a lonely little Snail
And here I sing my mighty tale
Of how I came to be
In these Woods you see
For once I lived amongst the weeds
In a garden, lush and green
And one morn I heard a Robin sing
Of towering Trees….
Towering trees
Forest green
Above me
Towering trees
Forest green
Above me.
Slowly, slowly, did I go
From garden to the great unknown
A windy way, over hedge and wall
I left behind a glistening trail
For others to follow, slug and snail
And in the distance, past the field
Reaching high, into the sky
Towering trees
Forest green
Above me
Towering trees
Forest green
Above me.
And you’re here with me.

Fabulous Unicorn
03:21
|
|||
|
The other ponies call you names,
‘Cos of the rainbow in your mane
You’re always running passed the fields and the stars
And I love you for all that you are
I see - you’re happy when you are free
So I’d rather be just like you
A fabulous unicorn.
Your trips to Magic Castle are never the same
You always make new friends on the way
You laugh with the Trees and the Birds and the Deer
The Forest is full of Love when you are near
I see - you’re happy when you are free
So I’d rather be just like you
A fabulous unicorn.
Oh -
Oh -
Sometimes - it's hard - to be just - who you are.
Sometimes - it's hard - to be just - who you are.
I see - you’re happy when you are free
So I’d rather be just like you
A fabulous unicorn.
Oh, I see - you’re happy when you are free
And I’d rather be just like you
A fabulous unicorn.
Oh.

Note: originally the second line was "Cos of the rainbow mud in your mane", which is sung in this version of the song

Good to be kind
01:23
|
|||
|
An upbeat song about friendship and kindness
~~~
It’s good to be kind to our friends
Cos we want to be happy when playtime ends
It’s not nice to be sad,
When we’re calm we feel glad
And we laugh and have fun
And we all get along
So when we’re together, we sing this song
Mhmmm - yeh we sing this song
It’s good to be kind, good to be kind,
good to be kind to our friends.
Yeh, it’s good to be kind, good to be kind,
good to be kind to our friends.
If you see a friend, who needs a hand
Give them some help, or find a grownup who can
Cos the next time you’re stuck, or you feel down
You need your friends, to help you up and make you smile.
So when we’re together, we sing this song
Mhmmm - yeh we sing this song
It’s good to be kind, good to be kind,
good to be kind to our friends.
Yeh, it’s good to be kind, good to be kind,
good to be kind to our friends.

Old Home of Mine
03:19
|
|||
|
Well I’ll go to the woods in the morrow
‘Cos I didn’t make time for them today
When I’m away from there too long
There’s a sorrow in my Heart
I lose my way
Go back to that old home of mine
To the wilds that haven’t changed with time
Where I leave all my troubles behind
And the kind Earth heals my soul
And the trees they hear my call
Help me let the worries go
And point me towards home
Well in each and every part here I see myself
From the meadows and the blossom and the birds
It taught me there’s a time for everything in life
Not to run ahead of seasons in my thoughts or words
Go back to that old home of mine
To the wilds that haven’t changed with time
Where I leave all my troubles behind
And the kind Earth heals my soul
And the trees they hear my call
Help me let the worries go
And point me towards home
And so I brave the World again
Knowing that the Wild is my friend
If I am lost, look to the Stars
If I am lost look to the Land
Go back to that old home of mine
To the wilds that haven’t changed with time
Where I leave all my troubles behind
And the kind Earth heals my soul
And the trees they hear my call
Help me let the worries go
And point me towards home
Carry my heart home.
