tangarine - dance with my father lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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

[chorus]
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

[verse 2]
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

[chorus]
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
[bridge]
sometimes, i’d listen outside her door
and i’d hear how my mother cried for him
i’d pray for her even more than me
i’d pray for her even more than me

[chorus]
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

[outro]
every night i fall asleep
this is all i ever dream
