    *this is just wishful thinking....

     

    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 knew 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

    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

    Then finally make me do just what my mama 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'd hear how my mother cried for him

    I pray for her even more than me

    I pray for her even more than me

    I know I'm praying for much too much

    But could you send back the only man she loved

    I know you don't do it usually

    But dear Lord she's dying

    To dance with my father again

    Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
