As I walked along the seashore,
this young boy greeted me.
He was tossing stranded starfish
back to the deep blue sea.
 

I said, "Tell me why you bother,
why waste your time this way?
There's a million stranded starfish,
does it matter anyway?"
 

And he said, "It matters to this one,
It deserves a chance to grow.
It matters to this one,
I can't save them all, I know.
 

But it matters to this one,
I'll return it to the sea.
It matters to this one,
and it matters to me."
 

I walked into the classroom.
The teacher greeted me.
She was helping Johnny study,
he was struggling-I could see.
 

I said, "Tell me why you bother,
why waste your time this way?
Johnny's only one of millions,
does it matter anyway?"
 

And she said, "It matters to this one,
He deserves a chance to grow.
It matters to this one,
I'll help him be what he can be.
It matters to this one,
and it matters to me."
