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
If I could get another chance Another walk, another dance with him I'll play a song that would never, ever end How I'll 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'll make me laugh just to comfort me 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'll play a song that would never, ever end Cause I'll love, love, love to dance with my father again
