dance with my father ---Luther Yandross
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\'till 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

小時候
生命的純真還未消失的年代,
父親常把我高高舉起
與母親和我跳舞,然後
抱着我旋轉直到我睡着。
然後他抱我上樓,
我敢肯定,他爱着我。
如果再有一次機會,和他一起散步,和他一起跳舞,
我一定要播一首永遠不休止的歌。
我會多麼的喜歡
能和父親再跳一次舞。
每當與母親意見不合時,
我為了要得逞,我就從母親那兒跑開去找父親。
他總能讓我笑起來,给我安慰,
然後乖乖地照母親的話去做。
那一天深夜,我睡得很香,
他在我的床單下塞了一塊錢,
我做夢也没想到他會從此離開我。
假如我能看他最後一眼,他最後的脚步,和他跳最後一次舞,
我一定要播一首永遠不休止的歌。,
我會多麼的喜歡
能和父親再跳一次舞.
有時在母親的房門外偷聽,
我知道她為父親哭得有多傷心。
我為自己禱告,更為母親禱\\\告;
我為她禱告超過為我自己\r
我為她禱告超過為我自己。\r
我知道我祈求的實在太多,
但你能不能把她爱的唯一的男人送回。
我知道主你通常不這麼做
可是親爱的主啊,她快要死了。
為了和父親再跳一次舞,
每天晚上我入睡後,而這就是我全部的夢境。
