"Skin" By Rascal Flatts

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 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 in 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.

Chorus:
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

Sara Beth is scared to death
As she sits holding her mom
Cause it would be a mistake for someone to take
A bald headed girl to the prom

For just this morning, right here 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

Chorus:
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

Bridge
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 all 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


Man, just what I needed before bed..to become a blubbering fool...one guess who I'll be falling asleep thinking about tonight...damn I miss my dad...it's like they're describing leukemia...even though they don't SAY it...and it just makes me think of him...*sigh*
 
wow i shouldn't listen to this song right before walking out the door for school...*wipes tears*
 
This is the one that gets me. Written by the lead singer for his mother's funeral.



Mama Don't You Cry by Steelheart

I fight the tears since you've been gone
And I stand in fear, can I make it on my own
Without your love to guide me thru my life
It's so cold at night without you here
And those gentle arms that held me close and dear
Oh we're all the same, we all live and die

You'll always be in my heart, oh Mama don't you cry
You'll always live in my dreams, oh Mama don't you cry

Every night when I close my eyes
I see a light and shadows of your face
It's always there like an angel over me
So many frozen years hangin' on my wall
A thousand words, I can hear them call
Oh I tried so hard but I could never say goodbye

You'll always be in my heart, oh Mama don't you cry
You'll always live in my dreams, oh Mama don't you cry

No one can kiss away the pain like you
No one like Mama, no one like you

(Solo)

You'll always be in my heart, oh Mama don't you cry
You'll always live in my dreams, oh Mama don't you cry

(You'll always be in my heart, oh Mama don't you cry - don't you cry)
(You'll always live in my dreams) in my dreams (Oh Mama don't you cry)
Oh Mama don't you cry
 
Il Divo - Mama

Mama thank you for who I am
Thank you for all the things I'm not
Forgive me for the words unsaid
For the times
I forgot
Mama remember all my life
You showed me love,you sacrificed
Think of those young and early days
How I've changed
Along the way (along the way)
Bridge:
And I know you believed
And I know you had dreams
And I'm sorry it took all this time to see
That I am where I am because of your truth
And I miss you , I miss you
Mama forgive the times you cried
Forgive me for not making right
All of the storms I may have caused
And I've been wrong
Dry your eyes (dry your eyes)
Bridge
Mama I hope this makes you smile
I hope you're happy with my life
At peace with every choice I made
How I've changed
Along the way
And I know you believed in all of my dreams
And I owe it all to you ,mama
