Karaoke Skin

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 bruises just won't go away
So she sits and see 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
Sarah Beth is scared to death 'cos 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 were 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
And she dreams she's dancing around and around without any cares
And her very first love was holding her close
And the soft wind is blowing her hair
Sarah Beth is scared to death as she sits holding her mom
'Cos 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 Sarah Beth closes her eyes
And she dreams she's dancing around and around without any cares
And her very first love was holding her close
And the soft wind is blowing her hair
It's quarter to seven that boys at the door and her daddy ushers him in
And when he takes off his cap they all start to cry
'Cos this morning where his hair had been
Softly she touches just skin
They go dancing around and around without any cares
And her very first true love was holding her close
And for a moment she isn't scared
Mmm...
