Phil Gawen - Fred Lyrics

His face so dear, with an animated smile
He sits up on her bed, with a loving stare
A comfort to changes
He's a dreamer that amazes
She makes believe, that he is real

With a bear so fair, I do declare
She treats him like a child friend
He's always there

When she feels that no one cares
There couldn't be a better pair
There wouldn't be a single teddy bear
That would compare

Lofty and gray from hugging, filled with hay

That he and she, that he be me
Oh we could be, oh be so near

A young girl has grown up
With a head on her shoulders
Stands 5 ft 9, she's doing just fine
Good childhood memories
With occasional taboos
Has left from home, she lives at school

With a bear so fair, I do declare
She loves them and leaves them
But he stays there

When she feels that no one cares
There couldn't be a better pair
There wouldn't be a single teddy bear
That would compare

Lofty and gray from hugging, filled with hay

'Cause when the world doesn't care
Fred is there
And when life loses all its flare
Fred is there
When everything's all but fair
Fred cares

Dark voiced shadows
Her eyes closed tight
Her fears reveal the monsters
Her dreams betray the night
Insecurities, she reaches, holds me tight

That she and he, that he be me
We could be, oh be so near
And she would be, free of fear
And I could wipe away her tears
