Cancer Free Number 1

Her rosy red lips, Her rosy pink cheeks; Her baby blue eyes, Her long blond hair. The love of her life, Staying by her side; Through it all, When they get the news. The months to come, To really see how much; Time is left for her, To make it through her life. Her rosy red lips, Are cracked and bleeding. Her rosy pink cheeks, Are so pale as can be. Her baby blue eyes, Are so sad and teary eyed. Her long blond hair, Is falling out in clumps. The love of her life, Stays by her side; Through it all and through, The years to come. When the time comes, He's by her side; When they get the news, She starts to cry. They hear the news, They fear the worst; When the doctor tells her, "You're cancer free!" They both cry because, She's been cancer free for; 3 years and she will be free from cancer, With the love of her life by her side.
