Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hey, little sun-kissed child

You are so beautiful and free

Oh, little sun-kissed child

We placed a world at your feet

Ooh, little sun-kissed child

You come from greatness, can't you see?

And everyone is waiting to see your miracles and feats

[Instrumental]

Hey, little sun-kissed child

Give some talent through and through

Oh, little sun-kissed child

We passed our knowledge on to you

Ooh, little sun-kissed child

What future wonders you will see

Universe will play bright

With endless possibilities

[Instrumental]

Hey, little sun-kissed child

Creative genius at play

Oh, little sun-kissed child

We need your wisdom today

Ooh, little sun-kissed child

Hope your vision's greater than hate

'Cause we really need you to show us the way

[Instrumental]

Ooh, sun-kissed child

I love you

Your mommy loves you

Your father loves you

Your teacher loves you

Your auntie loves you

Your uncle loves you

Your cousin loves you

Your brothers love you

Your sisters love you

All your friends love you

You're so loveable

You know you are

Little sun-kissed child

Little sun-kissed child

[Outro]

Hey, little sun-kissed child

I love you

I love you

You know who loves you?

Everybody loves you

Sun-kissed child

Sun-kissed child (Sun-kissed child)

Sun-kissed child

Ooh, sun-kissed child
