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 laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah
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
'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

What would I give to clasp his hand,
His happy face to see,
To hear his voice, and see his smile
That meant so much to me.

And have you gone, forever gone
And left us here to weep
Till we are called to follow you,
And in the grave to sleep.
Yet since you could no longer stay
To cheer us with your love,
We hope to meet you again in
The bright world above.

No one knows how much I miss you,
No one knows the bitter pain
I have suffered; since I lost you
Life has never been the same.
In my heart your memory lingers,
Sweetly tender, fond and true;
There is not a day, dear father,
That I do not think of you.

I was the luckiest girl in the world to be given a dad like you
Your film star looks, engaging smile and a heart of gold to
They tell me time heals a heart but I know mine will never mend
No one can replace my dad, my hero, my best friend
I visit the place where you were lain and talk to you every day
I see your face and hear our conversations and know just what you will say
I knew God was taking you even though I prayed for you to stay
You told me you would never leave you would be with me all the way
But no longer can I hug you, Or feel like dad little girl
My dad was my whole world now that world is in a whirl
I can only ask the Lord to love you and hold you in his care
Until the day that we are together in another life to share

Beautiful memories
Come to mind
When I speak your name
Thing's haven't been the same,
I realise that you have gone
I have to let you go,
But in my heart you'll always stay
Because I love you so.

✞Sadly missed,✞
✞Remembered Always.✞

✞Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.✞
