In her own sweet world
|
Populated by dolls and clowns
|
and a prince and a big purple bear.
|
|
Lives my favorite girl,
|
unaware of the worried frowns
|
that we weary grown ups all wear.
|
|
In the sun she dances to silent music,
|
songs that are spun of gold
|
somewhere in her own little head.
|
|
One day all too soon
|
she'll grow up and she'll leave her dolls
|
and her prince and her silly old bear.
|
|
When she goes they will cry
|
as she whispers "Good-bye."
|
They will miss her I fear
|
but then so will I.
