I'm more tired than you As I reach down to tuck you into bed I've got to find your bear and the tiger That sleep beside your head This love that I feel is ferocious as a lion So brave and so gentle that I almost feel like crying It's a great big world It's a great big moon It's a great big sky And a great big love for you Then I tell you a story of a lion who's your best friend He gets you into trouble but he brings you home safe in the end Some day all these stories may come to life as true When a child of your own can wake that lion in you It's a great big world It's a great big moon It's a great big sky And a great big love for you It's a great big world It's a great big moon It's a great big sky And a great big love
