The Little Mermaid - Just A Little Love Lyrics

(From "Splash Hits")

ARIEL:
Flounder, it’s…

FLOUNDER:
A k-killer whale!

ARIEL:
It’s only a little one

FLOUNDER:
You call that little?
His teeth are bigger than I am

ARIEL:
Come on. Come on
It’s alright. Nobody’s gonna hurt you

FLOUNDER:
Nobody’s gonna hurt him?

ARIEL:
Come on
Come on, Spot

FLOUNDER:
Spot?

ARIEL:
Uh-huh. See? Right there
There, you’re safe
Nobody’s gonna hurt you
Poor little frightened baby

FLOUNDER:
Baby?

ARIEL:
Wandering on your own
You've been through a lot
Haven’t you, Spot?
Poor Spot. Where’s your mother?
Don’t cry, Spot, I’ll take care of you
Everyone needs a family
No one should be alone
Now Flounder and me
We’re gonna be
A family you’ve never known
Flounder, we have to take him home with us

FLOUNDER:
We have to---WHAT?!

ARIEL:
Oh, Flounder, can’t you see?
Just a little love
And he'll be good as new
In just a little while
Watch a smile come shining through
He's just a little scared
He needs a friend today
He needs a little love
How can I turn away?

(Spot starts humming)

ARIEL:
He's singing! He sounds just like you!

FLOUNDER:
Kind of

ARIEL:
See? He likes you
You’ll be his big brother.

FLOUNDER:
I don’t want to be his big brother!
I don't want to be his midnight snack, either
It won't work, Ariel!

ARIEL:
Yes, it will
Just a little love
That's how you begin
Showing him you care
Being there to tuck him in
Helping him to grow
Each and every day
Just a little love
Can go a long, long way
