Sara Beth
Sara Beth is scared to deathTo hear what the doctor will sayShe hasn't been well, since the day that she fellAnd the bruise it just won't go away
So she sits and she waits with her mother and dadAnd flips through an old magazineTill the nurse with the smile stands at the doorAnd says, ?Will you please come with me??
Sara Beth is scared to death?Cause the doctor just told her the newsBetween the red cells and white, something's not rightBut we're gonna take care of you
Six chances in ten, it won't come back againWith the therapy we're gonna tryIt's just been approved, it's the strongest there isAnd I think we caught it in timeAnd Sara Beth closes her eyes
And she dreams she's dancingAround and around without any caresAnd her very first love is holding her closeAnd a soft wind is blowing her hair
Sara Beth is scared to death
As she sits holding her mom?Cause it would be a mistake for someone to takeA girl with no hair to the prom
For just this morning, right there on her pillowWas the cruelest of any surpriseAnd she cried when she gathered it all in her handsThe proof that she couldn't denyAnd Sara Beth closes her eyes
And she dreams she's dancingAround and around without any caresAnd her very first love was holding her closeAnd a soft wind is blowing her hair
It's quarter to seven, that boy's at the doorAnd her daddy ushers him inAnd when he takes off his capThey all start to cry?Cause this morning where his hair had beenSoftly she touches just skin
And they go dancingAround and around without any caresAnd her very first true love is holding her closeAnd for a moment she isn't scared
