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 til I fell asleep
then up the stairs he would carry me
and I new 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
oooo 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 momma 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
cause I'd love, love, love, to dance with my father again
sometimes I'd listen outside her door
and I hear how my mother cried for him
I'd pray for her even more than me
I'd pray for her even more than me
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.
Over three years ago my father passed away, not a day goes by that I don't think of him and miss him deeply. There are times I wish I could just see him one more time to hear him say "I love you Mits". To look into his eyes, to hear his laughter, or to be whirled around while dancing with him. I know that these past years have been very difficult more so for my Mother. When I call my Mom , and we talk about Daddy, I know she does it while holding back tears and my heart aches even more for her. When I first heard this song "Dance With My Father", all I could do was cry for it reached a part of how I have felt since he passed away. I know that someday when our time is up on this earth, my Mother and Father will dance again......
