Текст песни A Hug - Foster , Allen

I remember I wasn't much older
Than four, maybe five at the most
The go to school, mornings were colder
No such thing as a bus

Our mother was searching for school bags
And combing our hair the wrong way
As she buttered our toast
And buttoned our coats
Here's what my mother would say

We all need a hug in the morning
And one at the end of the day
As many as possible squeezed in between
To keep life's troubles at bay
No matter wherever you ramble
Your problems be great or be small
It is my belief
For instant relief
A hug is the best cure of all

I met an old exile in Boston
Who longed to go back home one day
But he thought no one there would be caring
For he'd been so long away

To stop a teardrop in his coffee
He gave his old whiskers a tug
And I knew that he'd give
All he needed to live
For a big welcome home again hug

We all need a hug in the morning
And one at the end of the day
As many as possible squeezed in between
To keep life's troubles at bay
No matter wherever you ramble
Your problems be great or be small
It is my belief
For instant relief
A hug is the best cure of all

A letter can bring consolation
A phone call can brighten the night
In the midst of great aggravation
They can put at least some things to right

But when your heart feels like it's breaking
Your life's slipping down past the plug
And you feel like a ghost
The thing that you want most
Is someone to give you a hug

We all need a hug in the morning
And one at the end of the day
As many as possible squeezed in between
To keep life's troubles at bay
No matter wherever you ramble
Your problems be great or be small
It is my belief
For instant relief
A hug is the best cure of all
