Generate meaning
1
Back when I was a child
2
Before life removed all the innocence
3
My father would lift me high
4
And dance with my mother and me and then
5
Spin me around til' I fell asleep
6
Then up the stairs he would carry me
7
And I knew for sure I was loved
8
If I could get another chance
9
Another walk, another dance with him
10
I'd play a song that would never ever end
11
How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again, ooh
12
When I and my mother would disagree
13
To get my way I would run from her to him
14
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah yeah
15
Then finally make me do just what my momma said
16
Later that night when I was asleep
17
He left a dollar under my sheet
18
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
19
If I could steal one final glance, one final step
20
One final dance with him
21
I'd play a song that would never ever end
22
'Cause I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again
23
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
24
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
25
I pray for her even more than me
26
I pray for her even more than me
27
I know I'm praying for much too much
28
But could you send back the only man she loved?
29
I know you don't do it usually
30
But dear Lord she's dying to dance with my father again
31
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
