| [00:16.340] |
Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence |
| [00:28.260] |
My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then |
| [00:39.490] |
Spin me around ' til I fell asleep |
| [00:45.430] |
Then up the stairs he would carry me |
| [00:49.840] |
And I knew for sure I was loved |
| [00:56.660] |
If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him |
| [01:09.040] |
I' d play a song that would never, ever end |
| [01:13.730] |
How I' d love, love, love wǒ shì duō me xiǎng... |
| [01:17.600] |
To dance with my father again |
| [01:32.460] |
When I and my mother would disagree |
| [01:38.620] |
To get my way, I would run from her to him |
| [01:44.570] |
He' d make me laugh just to comfort me |
| [01:50.500] |
Then finally make me do just what my mama said |
| [01:56.430] |
Later that night when I was asleep |
| [02:01.920] |
He left a dollar under my sheet |
| [02:06.960] |
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me |
| [02:13.690] |
If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him |
| [02:26.090] |
I' d play a song that would never, ever end |
| [02:30.500] |
' Cause I' d love, love, love |
| [02:34.570] |
To dance with my father again |
| [02:41.030] |
Sometimes I' d listen outside her door |
| [02:46.520] |
And I' d hear how my mother cried for him |
| [02:52.680] |
I pray for her even more than me |
| [02:58.810] |
I pray for her even more than me wǒ wèi mǔ qīn qí dǎo... |
| [03:18.900] |
I know I' m praying for much too much |
| [03:24.860] |
But could you send back the only man she loved |
| [03:31.160] |
I know you don' t do it usually |
| [03:35.760] |
But dear Lord she' s dying |
| [03:39.730] |
To dance with my father again |
| [03:48.820] |
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream |
