Lyrics

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
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 never end
How I'd love love love..
To dance with my father again

Ooooh..

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
Yeah yeah..
Then finally make me do just what my momma said

Later that night when I was asleep
He left the dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he, would be gone from me

Repeat chorus

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 hear how my momma cried for him
I pray for her even more than me..
I pray for her even more than me....

I know I'm praying for much too much
But could you send 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 asleep and this is all I ever dream..
