DANCE WITH MY FATHER AGAIN (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 till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me and then
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’d love, love, love
to dance with my father again Ooh, ooh
Another walk, another dance with him
I’d play a song that would never, ever end
How I’d love, love, love
to dance with my father again Ooh, ooh
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 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
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 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
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
‘Cause I’d love, love, love to dance with my father again
Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear her, mama cryin’ for him
I pray for her even more than me
And I’d hear her, mama cryin’ for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I’m prayin’ for much too much
But could You send back the only man
she loved I know You don’t do it usually
But could You send back the only man
she loved I know You don’t do it usually
But Lord,she’s dyin’ to dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep And this is all I ever dream.
Every night I fall asleep And this is all I ever dream.
I wish, I wish I was daddy's little girl,
TumugonBurahinI would have a dance with him into his arms I'd twirl.
I would have someone to hold me close when I get too scared,
Instead I have to dream about it with my best friend midred.-jenn
I think of all my other friends,Who have their dads by their sides.It makes me so mad,That I just want to run and hide.Why, why did you have to leave me?I think as I sit in my bed.All of these terrible thoughts of you Are tearing through my head.
TumugonBurahinSometimes it gets too painful,
As if I'm going to die.
Instead I sit perched on my bed,
Trying not to cry.
