Just a Little Love
This was the first song of the "The Little Mermaid" series, featured in the pilot episode "A Whale of a Tale", and you can tell there's a great deal of effort put into the song itself and the animation that accompanies it, whicih I reckon one of the best of the series.
"Just a Little Love" is sung by Ariel to Spot the Baby Killer Whale upon their first meeting, and can be found in the "Splash Hits" album.
Ariel:
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, where's your family?
Everyone needs a family
No one should be alone
Now Flounder and me
We're gonna be
The family you've never known
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?
He's singing! He sounds just like you!
Flounder:
Kinda.
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
