Dance with My Father - Jay R[00:00:00]
Written by:Richard Marx/Luther Vandross[00:00:01]
Back when I was a child[00:00:14]
Before life removed all the innocence[00:00:20]
My father would lift me high[00:00:26]
And dance with my mother and me and then[00:00:32]
Spin me around till I fell asleep[00:00:37]
Then up the stairs he would carry me[00:00:43]
And I knew for sure I was loved[00:00:48]
If I could get another chance[00:00:55]
Another walk another dance with him[00:01:01]
I'd play a song that would never ever end[00:01:07]
How I'd love love love to dance with my father again[00:01:12]
When I and my mother would disagree[00:01:31]
To get my way I would run from her to him[00:01:37]
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me yeah yeah[00:01:43]
Then finally make me do just what my momma said[00:01:49]
Later that night when I fell asleep[00:01:55]
He left a dollar under my sheet[00:02:01]
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me[00:02:06]
If I could steal[00:02:16]
One final glance[00:02:19]
One final step[00:02:22]
One final dance with him[00:02:24]
I'd play a song that would never ever end[00:02:28]
Cause I'd love love love to dance with my father again[00:02:33]
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door[00:02:43]
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him[00:02:49]
I'd pray for her even more than me[00:02:55]
I pray for her even more than me[00:03:01]
I know I'm praying for much too much[00:03:10]
But could you send back the only man she loved[00:03:16]
I know you don't do it usually[00:03:22]
But dear lord she's dying to dance with my father again[00:03:27]
Every night I fall asleep[00:03:40]
This is all I ever dream[00:03:43]
