Dancing With My Father by Luther Van Dross

Back when I was a child
Before (1)________ removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And (2)__________ with my (3)____________ and me and then
Spin me around till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs, he would carry me
And I knew for (4)________ I was loved
If I could get (5)______________ chance
Another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that (6)__________ never ever end
How I'd love, love, (7)________ to dance with my (8)____________ again, ooh
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way I would run (9)________ her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
Then finally make me do just what my (10)__________ said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a (11)____________ (12)__________ my sheet
Never dreamed that he (13)__________ be (14)________ from me
If I could steal one final glance, one final step
One final dance (15)________ him
I'd play a (16)________ (17)________ would never ever end
'Cause I'd love, love, (18)________ to dance with my (19)____________ again
Sometimes I'd listen (20)______________ her door
And I'd hear how my (21)____________ cried for him
I pray for her even (22)________ than me
I pray for her even (23)________ (24)________ me
I know I'm praying for much too much
But (25)__________ you (26)________ (27)________ the only man she loved?
I (28)________ you don't do it usually
But dear Lord she's dying to dance with my father again
Every (29)__________ I fall asleep and (30)________ is all I ever dream
