Dancing With My Father by Luther Van Dross

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 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, ooh
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run from her to him
He'd make me (1)__________ just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just (2)________ 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 (3)__________ glance, one (4)__________ step
One (5)__________ dance with him
I'd play a song that would never ever end
'Cause I'd love, love, love to (6)__________ (7)________ my father again
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my (8)____________ cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I (9)________ 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 (10)____________ again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
