Sarah Beth is scared to deathSarah Beth está asustada hasta la muerte

To hear what the doctor will sayPor escuchar lo que dirá el doctor

She hasn't been wellNo ha estado bien

Since the day that she fellDesde el día que se cayó

And the bruise, it just won't go awayY el moretón simplemente no desaparece

So she sits and see waits with her mother and dadAsí que se sienta y espera con su mamá y papá

and Flips through an old magaziney hojea una vieja revista

Til the nurse with the smileHasta que la enfermera con una sonrisa

Stands at the doorSe para en la puerta

And says will you please come with meY dice 'por favor, ven conmigo'

Sarah Beth is scared to deathSarah Beth está asustada hasta la muerte

Cause the doctor just told her the newsPorque el doctor acaba de darle la noticia

Between the red cells and whiteEntre los glóbulos rojos y blancos

Something's not rightAlgo no está bien

But we're gonna take care of youPero vamos a cuidarte

Six chances in ten it won't come back againSeis posibilidades de diez de que no regrese

With the therapy were gonna tryCon la terapia que vamos a intentar

It's just been approvedAcaba de ser aprobada

It's the strongest there isEs la más fuerte que hay

I think we caught it in timeCreo que lo atrapamos a tiempo

Sarah Beth closes her eyesSarah Beth cierra los ojos

and She dreams she's dancingY sueña que está bailando

Around and around without any caresAlrededor y alrededor sin preocupaciones

And her very first love is holding her closeY su primer amor la abraza fuerte

And the soft wind is blowing her hairY el suave viento le sopla el cabello

Sarah Beth is scared to deathSarah Beth está asustada hasta la muerte

As she sits holding her momMientras se sienta sosteniendo a su mamá

Cause it would be a mistakePorque sería un error

For someone to takeQue alguien lleve

A girl with no hair to the promA una chica sin cabello al baile de graduación

For, just this morning right there on her pillowPorque, justo esta mañana ahí en su almohada

Was the cruellest of any surpriseEstaba la más cruel de todas las sorpresas

And she cried when she gathered it all in her handsY lloró cuando lo recogió todo en sus manos

The proof that she couldn't denyLa prueba que no podía negar

Sarah Beth closes her eyesSarah Beth cierra los ojos

and She dreams she's dancingY sueña que está bailando

Around and around without any caresAlrededor y alrededor sin preocupaciones

and her very first love was holding her closeY su primer amor la abrazaba fuerte

and the soft wind is blowing her hairY el suave viento le sopla el cabello

It's quarter to sevenSon casi las siete

That boy's at the doorEse chico está en la puerta

And her daddy ushers him inY su papá lo hace entrar

And when he takes off his capY cuando se quita la gorra

They all start to cryTodos empiezan a llorar

Cause this morning where his hair had beenPorque esta mañana donde solía estar su cabello

Softly, she touches just skinSuavemente, ella toca solo piel

They go dancing around and aroundVan bailando alrededor y alrededor

Without any caresSin preocupaciones

And her very first true love is holding her closeY su primer amor verdadero la abraza fuerte

For a moment she isn't scared...Por un momento ella no está asustada...
