12. Safe at Home

One baby otter in the cradle of the sea
Two baby owls in the hollow of a tree
Three baby fawn in the forest where they’ve grown
And all the baby animals are safe at home

Four baby bears coming home to rest
Five baby mice are sleeping in their nest
Six baby chicks to the coup they have gone
And all the baby animals are safe at home

Seven baby pigs all snuggled in their pen
Eight baby fox are lying in their den
Nine baby geese back to the weeds have flown
And all the baby animals are safe at home
And all the baby animals are safe at home

One cradle rocking by the warm fire light
One child sleeping peaceful I the night
Love is the reason you’ll never feel alone
Like all the baby animals safe at home

One baby otter in the cradle of the sea
Two baby owls in the hollow of a tree
Three baby fawn in the forest where they’ve grown
And all the baby animals are safe at home
