The Hopechest Song

In the style of

Stephanie Bentley

Lyrics

her mama bought her
a hope chest
to keep her
dreams inside

all the
precious memories
little things
she liked to hide
a magic wand
an old rag doll
some plastic pearls
'cause after all

a little girl
is only a little girl
so long
and tender hearts
need their stars
to wish upon

'cause one day
you will turn around
and she'll be gone
a little girl
is only a little girl
so long

one day when she got
home from school
she slipped
a little note
beneath the
tattered lining
and here is
what he wrote

roses are red
violets are blue
put an x in the box
if you love me too

a little girl
is only a little girl
so long
and tender hearts
need their stars
to wish upon

'cause one day you
will turn around
and she'll be gone
a little girl
is only a little girl
so long

they married
in the garden
on a perfect
july day
in a horse
and carriage
they waved
and rode away

mama went inside
to put away
her wedding dress
and spotted a letter
lying on
the old hope chest

it said a little girl
is only a little girl
so long
your lonely heart
might need a star
to wish upon

so look inside
once in a while
to bring
the memories home

a little girl
is only a little girl
and i will always be
your little girl
so long
