You are special

You’re the only one

You’re the only one like you.

There isn’t another in the whole wide world

Who can do the things you do

Oh, you are special, special, everyone is special

Everyone in his or her own way

Oh, you are special, special, everyone is special

Everyone in his or her own way

 

    You are important.  Oh, you really are

You’re the only one of you

The world is better just because you’re here

You should know that we all love you

 

Oh, you are special, special, everyone is special

Everyone in his or her own way

Oh, you are special, special, everyone is special

Everyone in his or her own way

 

ALL:  You have brains in your head, and feet in your shoes, you can steer yourself in any direction you choose.

THE END!
