Dance With My Father Again |
Back when I was a child, before life removed all the inocence 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's make me laugh just to comfort me Then finally make me do just what my mama said Later that night when I was asleep He left a dollar under my sheets 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 here how my mohter cried for him I pray for her even more than me I know I'm praying for 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 alseep and this is all I ever dreamed To have one more dance with my Father. |
To my Mom with love.... |
