Sara Beth is scared to death

To hear what the doctor will say


She hasn't been well


Since the day that she fell

and the bruise that just won't go away





so she sits and she waits with her mother and dad

and flips through an old magazine


Till the nurse with a smile stands at the door


and says Will You Please Come with Me?




Sara Beth is scared to death


cause the doctor just told her the news

between the red cells and white


something's not right


but we're gonna take care of you




six chances in ten it won't come back again


with the therapy we're gonna try

its just been approved it's the strongest there is


and i think we caught it in time


and sara beth closes her eyes




and she dreams she dancing around and around


without any cares

and her very first love


is holding her close


and the 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 take a girl with no hair to the prom




for this morning right there on her pillow


was the cruelest of any surprise


and she cried when she gathered it all in her hands

the proof that she couldn't deny

sara beth closes her eyes




and she dreams she dancing around and around


without any cares

and her very first love

is holding her close


and the soft wind was blowing her hair




it's quarter till seven

that boy's at the door

and her daddy ushers him in


when he takes off his cap they all start to cry

cause this morning where his hair had been

softly she touches just skin




and they go dancing around and around

without any cares

and her very first true love


is holding her close

for a moment she isn't scared
