patti page - hope chest lyrics

[verse 1]
her mama bought her a hope chest
to keep her dreams inside
all the precious memories
little things she’d like to hide
a magic wand, an old rag doll
some plastic pearls, ’cause, after all

[chorus]
a little girl is only a little girl so long
tender hearts need their stars to wish upon
one day will turn around, and she’ll be gone
a little girl is only a little girl so long

[verse 2]
one day, when she got home from school
she slipped a little note
beneath the tattеred lining
and here is what hе wrote
‘roses are red, violets are blue’
‘put an x in the box if you like me too’

[chorus]
a little girl is only a little girl so long
tender hearts need their stars to wish upon
one day will turn around, and she’ll be gone
a little girl is only a little girl so long
[verse 3]
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 she spotted a letter lying on the old hope chest
it said…

[chorus]
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
’cause a little girl is only a little girl
and i will always be your little girl so long
