Song Meaning of “Little Bear” by Danny Wright
In the sweet and solemn song ‘Little Bear’ by Danny Wright, he speaks of a childhood companion, a small teddy bear, that watches over him through the trials, tribulations and difficult times of growing up. Throughout the song he speaks of his attachment to this little bear and how it continuously provided comfort and safety. In the chorus he speaks of the difficulty of letting go of this comfort and ‘saving grace’, while also expressing a lingering hope that his little bear will keep watch over him beyond.
The song serves as a symbolic reminder of the things that we hold dear in life, even to our most grown-up days. It speaks to the pain we feel when we must release that which gives us something to depend on to make it through life’s tougher moments. The song is an ode to the significance of all the small things that have made a large impact, and to never forget the little bear that has always been with us. In the end we are reminded that although these splashes of solace are temporary, their impacts will remain with us forever.
