Dance With My Father (Radio Edit)

Back when, I was a child
Before life removed
All the innocence
My father, would lift me up
And dance with
My mother
And me and then, uh
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
Ever end
How I'd love, love, love
To dance with
My father again

Ooooh

When I 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 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
How I'd, love, love, love
To dance with
My father, again

Sometimes, I'd listen
Outside her door
And I'd here
How mama
Would cry for him
I'd pray for her
Even more than me
I'd, pray for her
Even more than me

Ooooh, ooh
Ooh, ooooh

I know
I'm praying
For much, to much
But could
You send back
The only man
She loved
I know you don't
Do it usually
But dear Lord
She's dyin
To dance
With my father
Again
Every night
I fall asleep
And this is all
I ever dream
