Tears of a Little Girl

Tears of a little girl
that's so young, that's in her childhood, 
make a golden well, make a golden well,
but she doesn't realize
her tears sing a song so beautiful.
They sing a song of treasure,
they sing a song so wonderful,
they sing to worship God,
but she doesn't realize
she has a gift to sing.
She mustn't sing for anything
she must sing for the King,
but she doesn't realize,
she can sing so goldenly, (so as a golden well)

Lost a Dream

Lost a dream did I,
the only dream ever had I.
How happy would I,
happy on my wedding day
if ever had I,
a diamond on my finger.

Lost a dream did I,
the day he proposed to I,
I looked at him in the eye,
and said I wasn't ready
he cried to I,
I'd regret it forever.

Lost a dream have I,
the only dream I ever had.
