back when i was a child,before life removed all the innocence |
| [00:29.92] |
my father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then |
| [00:41.19] |
spin me around 'til i fell asleep |
| [00:47.11] |
then up the stairs he would carry me |
| [00:51.73] |
and i knew for sure i was loved |
| [00:59.33] |
if i could get another chance,another walk,another dance with him |
| [01:12.17] |
i'd play a song that would never,ever end |
| [01:17.66] |
how i'd love,love,love |
| [01:20.29] |
to dance with my father again |
| [01:35.55] |
when i and my mother would disagree |
| [01:42.04] |
to get my way,i would run from her to him |
| [01:48.17] |
he'd make me laugh just to comfort me |
| [01:53.99] |
then finally make me do just what my mama said |
| [02:00.00] |
later that night when i was asleep |
| [02:06.50] |
he left a dollar under my sheet |
| [02:10.39] |
never dreamed that he would be gone from me |
| [02:18.38] |
if i could steal one final glance,one final step,one final dance with him |
| [02:30.15] |
i'd play a song that would never,ever end |
| [02:34.57] |
'cause i'd love,love,love |
| [02:38.78] |
to dance with my father again |
| [02:45.17] |
sometimes i'd listen outside her door |
| [02:49.22] |
and i'd hear how my mother cried for him |
| [02:57.02] |
i pray for her even more than me |
| [03:03.30] |
i pray for her even more than me |
| [03:08.70] |
i know i'm praying for much too much |
| [03:17.86] |
but could you send back the only man she loved |
| [03:24.26] |
i know you don't do it usually |
| [03:28.74] |
but dear lord she's dying |
| [03:31.61] |
to dance with my father again |
| [03:39.43] |
every night i fall asleep and this is all i ever dream |
| [03:57.42] |
i know you don't do it usually |
| [04:01.85] |
but dear lord she's dying |
| [04:05.80] |
to dance with my father again |
