Lyrics

Verse 1
Down on Birdwell Island by the blue-green sea,
There’s a pup so giant he outgrows every tree.
0:22
He came from a wish and a love so strong,
Now his footsteps clap like a marching song.
Pre-Chorus
When you’re small in a world so wide,
He’ll kneel down low, let you climb and ride.
Chorus
Clifford, Clifford, big red heart,
Paints the town in a friendly spark.
Every bark’s a trumpet, bold and bright,
Turns a cloudy day to golden light.
Clifford, Clifford, faithful friend,
From tiny streets to ocean’s end,
You show us love can make us tall—
With a big red heart for one and all.
Verse 2
Emily Elizabeth ties a ribbon in his fur,
Whispers, “Let’s go help,” and the town begins to stir.
He lifts up ladders, sets the sails to glide,
Carries picnic baskets for a seaside ride.
Pre-Chorus
When trouble knocks on a windy night,
He’s a lighthouse glow, shining warm and bright.
Chorus
Clifford, Clifford, big red heart,
Paints the town in a friendly spark.
Every bark’s a trumpet, bold and bright,
Turns a cloudy day to golden light.
Clifford, Clifford, faithful friend,
From tiny streets to ocean’s end,
You show us love can make us tall—
With a big red heart for one and all.
Bridge
He’s a crimson moon over sand and stone,
A gentle giant who never walks alone.
