| Sarah 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 'til the nurse with the smile
 | 
| Stands at the door and says, «Will you please come with me?»
 | 
| Sarah Beth is scared to death
 | 
| 'Cause the doctor just told her the news
 | 
| «Between the red cells and white, some thing’s not right
 | 
| But we’re gonna take care of you
 | 
| 6 chances in 10 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 we caught it in time»
 | 
| And Sarah 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
 | 
| Sarah 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 things, a surprise
 | 
| And she cried as she gathered it into her hands
 | 
| The proof that she couldn’t deny and Sarah Beth closes her eyes
 | 
| She dreams she’s dancing, around and around
 | 
| Without any cares and her very first love
 | 
| Was 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 |
