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 it 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 the 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 It's just been approved, it's the strongest there is And I think that we caught it in time And Sara Beth closes her eyes. She dreams she's dancing Around and around without any cares And her very first love is holding her close And 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 take A girl with no hair to the prom For just 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 And Sara Beth closes her eyes And she dreams she's dancing Around and around without any cares And her very first love is holding her close And a soft wind is blowing her hair It's quarter to seven, that boy's at the door And her daddy ushers him in And 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 And for a moment she isn't scared
