Song | Dance With My Father |
Artist | Celine Dion |
Album | So Amazing: An All-Star Tribute To Luther Vandross |
[00:15.96] | Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence |
[00:28.07] | My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then |
[00:38.99] | Spin me around till I fell asleep |
[00:45.07] | Then up the stairs he would carry me |
[00:49.52] | And I knew for sure I was loved |
[00:59.33] | If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him |
[01:11.80] | I\'d play a song that would never, ever end |
[01:15.63] | How I’d love, love, love |
[01:19.52] | To dance with my father again |
[01:34.57] | When I and my mother would disagree |
[01:40.85] | To get my way, I would run from her to him |
[01:46.79] | He’d make me laugh just to comfort me |
[01:52.71] | Then finally make me do just what my mama said |
[01:58.70] | Later that night when I was asleep |
[02:04.54] | He left a dollar under my sheet |
[02:08.94] | Never dreamed that he would be gone from me |
[02:15.82] | If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him |
[02:28.28] | I’d play a song that would never, ever end |
[02:32.83] | ‘Cause I’d love, love, love |
[02:36.70] | To dance with my father again |
[02:43.04] | Sometimes I’d listen outside her door |
[02:48.93] | And I’d hear how my mother cried for him |
[02:55.73] | I pray for her even more than me |
[03:01.87] | I pray for her even more than me |
[03:25.09] | I know I’m praying for much too much |
[03:30.93] | But could you send back the only man she loved |
[03:37.25] | I know you don’t do it usually |
[03:41.63] | But dear Lord she’s dying |
[03:45.82] | To dance with my father again |
[03:51.61] | Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream |
[04:09.39] | I know you don\'t do it usually |
[04:13.63] | But dear lord she\'s dying |
[04:18.03] | To dance with my father again |
