Dance With My Father
Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me
And then...
Spin me around til’ I fell asleep,
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved。
If I could get another chance,
Another walk, another dance with him,
I’d play a song that would never ever end
How I’d love love love...
To dance with my father again.
When I and my mother would disagree,
To get my way I would run from her to him.
He’d make me laugh just to comfort me,
Then finally make me do just what my momma said.
Later that night when I was asleep,
He left a dollar under my sheet.
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me.
If I could steal one final glance,
One final step,
One final dance with him,
I’d play a song that would never ever end
Cause I’d love love love...
To dance with my father again.
Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear how my momma cried for him
I pray for her even more than me...
I pray for her even more than me.....
I know I’m praying for much too much,
But could you send back,
The only man she loved.
I know you don’t do it usually,
But dear Lord she’s dying,
To dance with my father again.
Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream...
