Dance With My Father Again

Back when I was 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
And up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get
One final chance
One final walk
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 hear how my mother cried for him
And I prayed for her even more than me
I prayed for her even more than me
I know I’m praying
For much too much
But you could send back
the only man she loved
I know you dont do it usually
But dear Lord she’s dying
To dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep
This is all I ever
Dream
