Dance With My Father

Song: Dance With My Father Artist: Luther Vandross 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 Spin me around till 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 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 mama 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 love, love, love To dance with my father again Sometimes I'd listen outside her door And I'd hear how my mother cried for him I pray for her even more than me I know I'm praying so much too much But could you send back the only man she loved I know u don't do it usually She's dying to dance with my father again Every night I fall asleep this is all I ever dream />/> Rebecca Lin 2007 13 Winter In USA
