Kellie Coffey - Dance with My Father Again lyrics

Back when I was a child Before life removed all the innocence My father would lift me high And dance with my momma and me and then Spin me around till I fell asleep Then up the stairs he would carry me And I new 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 me and my momma 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 momma 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 How I'd love, love, love to dance with my father again. Sometimes I'd listen outside her door And I'd hear my momma cry for him I'd pray for her even more than me I'd pray for her even more. 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...
