Thanks for sending that one in, Dick. So often people want to attach the
negative outlook to the words of that song....or, knock the simplicity of
its chords & melody. If you really pay attention to THE WORDS, as has been
done in this lovely video, you can get so much out of it.
Every time I sing it & get to the part about "watching babies grow...they'll
learn much more than we'll ever know", I think about my own kids & their
friends & the things they have learned.
Jim
