[00:17.76] Willie, what can I say to you
[00:25.23] to hold true in your changing life?
[00:33.20] You've come into a cruel world;
[00:41.44] little girls can lose their way in the growing night...
[00:48.27] I hope you'll be alright.
[00:58.52] Willie, try to stay a child sometime,
[01:05.48] for as long as you feel you can learn.
[01:14.52] Babies all turn to people
[01:21.95] and people can really be strange;
[01:34.45] they change and, changing, bring pain.
[01:43.10] Try to treat your parents well because they care,
[01:47.93] and what more can you do?
[01:58.56] When you find your lovers, be good to them
[02:02.94] as you hope they'll be to you
[02:07.18] be honest,
[02:12.65] be true.
[02:21.68] Willie, you are the future;
[02:28.66] all our lives, in the end are in your hands.
[02:37.23] Life's hard now; you know it gets harder
[02:44.21] and hope is but a single strand:
[02:51.05] we pass it on and hope you'll understand....
[03:42.84] We know that we do it wrong,
[03:45.78] we're not so strong and not so sure at all;
[03:57.47] groping in our blindness,
[04:00.42] we may seem big now but, really, we're so
[04:04.52] small and alone and searching for a home
[04:12.43] in the night.
[04:21.21] Meanwhile you're still a baby;
[04:28.44] you'll be a lady soon enough
[04:32.60] and then you will feel the burn.
[04:35.25] So hold my words: people all turn to children,
[04:45.24] spiteful children, and they're really so cruel,
[04:58.01] cruel fools!
[04:59.94] Just follow your own rules...
[05:06.54] don't think that I'm silly, Willie,
[05:09.12] if I say I hope that there is hope for you.
