For Jasmine

I am watching you
Watching the way you watch people do
The things that they do
As you grow older, learning

Child understanding
About the way that a soul, on a soul, on a soul can be born
Can be beautiful

Child understanding
I see the smile that lights your face
When you understand and realize
Oh child, in this world

Strange how we forget the things that made us first smile

Never stop learning
Never stop wondering

Baby's growing older
Oh my child never stop learning

And I'm learning too
About the way that people do
The things that they do

Never meaning to hurt anyone
But we all do things that we regret
And wish we'd never done
Oh child, and there you are

Wandering through the garden of life
Picking up flowers and eating them
And the world will smile when you smile
And we all have smiles inside of us

Never stop learning
Never stop wondering

Baby's growing older
Oh, my child never stop learning

Don't you ever stop learning
Don't you ever stop learning
Don't you ever stop learning
Don't you ever stop wondering

Baby's growing older
Oh my child, never stop learning
Don't you ever stop learning
Never stop learning

Don't you ever stop feeling
Never, never
Say: I'm gonna find my heart

Don't make me say it again
Don't you ever stop learning
