When you give a girl a book
When you give a girl a book
She can dream farther than she can look
Her head in the sky
She may decide to fly
Pilot, Doctor, Lawyer, Painter
She wonders what the world will make her
When you give a girl a book
She can read about what it took
What she can make, What she can take
What she can create, What is at stake
Entrepreneur, Actor, Engineer, Geologist
You get the gist
When you give a girl a book
She is affirmed, She is more than her look
Oh what she will be, How inspiring to the
Glimmering and glistening for all to see
One day you will look back, so simple a time
When you gave a girl a book, and she called the world “mine”
