Back when I was a child |
| [00:23.91] |
Before life removed all the innocence |
| [00:31.86] |
My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then |
| [00:42.85] |
Spin me around 'til I fell asleep |
| [00:48.55] |
Then up the stairs he would carry me |
| [00:52.51] |
And I knew for sure I was loved |
| [00:58.90][01:30.94][02:14.13][02:41.50][03:12.81][04:09.16] |
|
| [00:59.90] |
If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him |
| [01:12.72] |
I'd play a song that would never ever end |
| [01:16.79] |
How I'd love, love, love |
| [01:20.68] |
To dance with my father again |
| [01:35.94] |
When I and my mother would disagree |
| [01:41.72] |
To get my way I would run from her to him |
| [01:48.87] |
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah yeah |
| [01:53.71] |
Then finally make me do just what my moma said |
| [01:59.74] |
Later that night when i want to sleep |
| [02:05.37] |
He left a dollar under my sheet |
| [02:09.53] |
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me |
| [02:16.13] |
If i could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him |
| [02:29.67] |
I'd play a song that would never ever end |
| [02:33.81] |
'Cause I'd love, love, love, love |
| [02:37.05] |
To dance with my father again |
| [02:44.50] |
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door |
| [02:49.76] |
And I'd hear how mama cried for him |
| [02:55.93][03:01.64] |
I pray for her even more than me |
| [03:22.81] |
I know I'm praying for much too much |
| [03:27.26] |
But could you send back the only man she loved |
| [03:34.76] |
I know you don't do it usually |
| [03:38.76] |
But dear Lord she's dying |
| [03:43.26] |
To dance with my father again |
| [03:52.26] |
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream |
| [04:15.01] |
THE END |
