Celine Dion - Dance With My Father

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
