Back when I was a childBefore life removed all the innocenceMy father would lift me highAnd dance with my mother and meAnd then spin me around 'til I fell asleepThen up the stairs he would carry meAnd I knew for sure I was lovedIf I could get another chanceAnother walk, another dance with himI'd play a song that would never ever endHow I'd love, love, love To dance with my father againWhen I and my mother will disagreeTo get my way I would run from her to himHe'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeahThen finally make me do just what my mama saysLater that night when I was asleepHe left a dollar under my sheetNever dreamed that he would be gone from meIf I could steal one final glanceOne final step, one final dance with himI'd play a song that will never, never end'Cause I'd love, I'd love to dance with my father againSometimes I'd listen outside her doorSongtexteAnd I'd hear how my mama cried for himI pray for her even more than meI pray for her even more than meI know I'm praying for much too muchBut could you send back the only man she lovedI know you don't do it usuallyBut dear Lord, she's dyingTo dance with my father againEvery night I fall asleepAnd this is all I ever dream Aus Songtexte Mania
