Dottie, You’re the Sweetest Thing
Style: Barbershop

[Verse 1]
You light up every quiet room
With laughter stitched in golden thread
A sweet surprise in every tune
That turns the ordinary, blessed

[Chorus]
Dottie, Dottie, you’re the prize
The sparkle in the jars we keep
Dottie, you turn skies to skies
Of candy dreams and sweet reprieve

[Verse 2]
You’ve got that laugh that heals the ache
The kind that lingers, soft and deep
Like paper bags that softly shake
With treasures none can ever keep

[Pre-chorus]
The world goes still when you draw near
A hush of hope, a gentle glow
Like mint on tongues, held crystal clear

[Chorus]
Dottie, Dottie, you’re the prize
The sparkle in the jars we keep
Dottie, you turn skies to skies
Of candy dreams and sweet reprieve

[Bridge]
No lottery ever paid this right
No pie could hold what you provide

[Chorus]
Dottie, Dottie, you’re the prize
The sparkle in the jars we keep
Dottie, you turn skies to skies
Of candy dreams and sweet reprieve

[Outro]
So let the bags still rustle near
For you’re the sweetest thing we hold
