LUTHER VANDROSS lyrics : "Dance With My Father"

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 â??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, ever end

How I'd 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 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

I'd play a song that would never, ever end
â??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 mother 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 back 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
