Lyrics
Mummy there’s a giant in my bed
He tells me I can see my dad
If I bring him ribbons, blue and red,
Mummy can I see my dad??

I wanna see my dad an awful lot
He just went away and he forgot
To say good-bye and kiss my head
Or sing a song in bed

How can the little girl know?
That he loved her so
He had hoped to live and see her grow
How can the little girl know?

Mum, I know you often look so sad,
But I’ll work real hard to find my dad
Then you won’t leave me or be mad
Mum I’m gonna find my dad

But the great big giant scares me so
I wish my dad would come and make him go
But the giant’s hidden him somewhere
I hope that I will find him there

How can the little girl know?
That he loved her so
He had hoped to live and help her grow
How can the little girl know?
