Give Me a Big Ole Bear Hug

Give Me a Big Ole Bear Hug

There’s something in a simple hug

That always warms the heart;

It welcomes us back home

And makes it easier to part.

A hug’s a way to share the joy

And sad times we go through,

Or just a way for friends to say

hey I 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 a little 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.
