Dance With My Father - Richard Marx

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Richard Marx\/Luther Vandross
[00:00.300]
[00:12.000]Back when I was a child,
[00:17.000]before life removed all the innocence
[00:24.000]My father would lift me high
[00:30.000] and dance with my mother and me and then
[00:34.000]Spin me around ‘til I fell asleep
[00:41.000]Then up the stairs he would carry me
[00:46.000]And I knew for sure I was loved
[00:52.000]If I could get
[00:56.000]another chance,
[00:58.000]another walk,
[01:01.000]another dance with him
[01:04.000]I’d play a song that would never, ever end
[01:10.000]How I’d love, love, love
[01:14.000]To dance with my father again
[01:28.000]]When I and my mother would disagree
[01:35.000]To get my way, I would run from her to him
[01:40.000]He’d make me laugh just to comfort me
[01:47.000]Then finally make me do just what my mama said
[01:53.000]Later that night when I was asleep
[01:58.000]He left a dollar under my sheet
[02:02.000]Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
[02:09.998]If I could steal
[02:12.998]one final glance,
[02:14.998]one final step,
[02:17.998]one final dance with him
[02:20.998]I’d play a song that would never, ever end
[02:26.998]‘Cause I’d love, love, love
[02:30.998]To dance with my father again
[02:39.998]Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
[02:45.998]And I’d hear how my mother cried for him
[02:51.998]I pray for her even more than me
[02:57.998]I pray for her even more than me
[03:14.998]I know I’m praying for much too much
[03:19.998]But could you send back the only man she loved
[03:27.998]I know you don’t do it usually
[03:31.998]But dear Lord she’s dying
[03:35.998]To dance with my father again
[03:43.998]Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
