Chorus: Some are tight And some are gentle Some are short And some are long and sentimental A hug can help you feel okay If you get a little boo boo Or you’re having a rough tough day Try and hug it all away Chorus A hug can help you share some love With a very special grownup Taking care of you So hug ‘em all day through Chorus A hug can help you cheer a friend When she seems a little sad You can bend her frown back to a smile Just hug her for a while Chorus A hug can help you feel so great But sometimes we just need some personal space (And that’s ok, too!)
