[78-L] Beautiful lyrics

[Taylor Bowie]

Thanks to Malcolm for posting the lyrics...they are much different than what 
I had assumed/imagined ...very poetic,  in the best sense of the term.

> LITTLE LADY MAKE-BELIEVE
>
> Dressed up in a gown the trails on the floor,
> In a picture hat that your mommy wore,
> Living in a world that you never saw,
> My little lady make believe.
>
> What a pair of shoes for two tiny feet,
> What a pair of gloves the fingers don't need,
> Posing in a glass your joy is complete,
> My little lady make believe.
>
> In your little arms the doll you unfold
> means the world and all to you.
> But you could never love the doll that you hold
> half as much as I love you, dear.
>
> Dream your little dreams and may they come true,
> May the coming years bring happiness too,
> All my future dreams are wrapped up in you,
> My little lady make believe.
>
> Dream your little dreams...
> My little lady make believe.
