They stare as she walks in the room
     She trembles, afraid, wondering,
     Will they hate? Will they judge?
     Do they care? Why the stares?

They are nervous, wondering
     Who is she?Why's she here?
     Just a slender young girl
     Who doesn't look their way
     Is she proud? Is she vain?
     Will she bite? Will she hate?

He stands up to wlcome her in
     Says they are glad that she is here
     She looks up shyly, full of fear
     But then he smiles, and takes her hand
     And then she suddenly smiles back.
