Dance With My Father   Luther Vandross

Dance With My Father  Luther Vandross






 


 c g


 Back when I was a child


 am f


 Before life removed all the innocence


 c g


 My father would lift me high


 am f


 And dance with my mother and me and then


 


 c g


 Spin me around till I fell asleep


 am f


 Then up the stairs he would carry me


 c


 And I knew for sure


 g


 I was loved


 


 c g


 If I could get another chance


 am f


 Another walk, another dance with him


 [dm]I'd play a song that would [am]never, ever end


 


 f c


 How I'd love my mother to dance with my father again


 


 c g


 When I and my mother would disagree


 am f


 To get my way I would run from her to him


 c g


 He'd make me laugh just to comfort me, yeah, yeah


 am f


 Then finally make me do just what my mama said

 c g


 Later that night when I was asleep


 am f


 He left a dollar under my sheet


 c


 Never dreamed that he


 g


 Would be gone from me


 


 c g


 If I could steal one final glance


 am f


 One final step, one final dance with him


 [dm]I'd play a song that would [am]never, ever end


 f


 cause i'd love my mother to dance with my father


 c


 again


 


 dm g


 Sometimes I'd listen outside her door


 c am


 And I'd hear my mama cryin' for him


 f g


 I pray for her even more than me


 f g


 I pray for her even more than me


 


 c g


 I know I'm prayin' for much too much


 am f


 But could You send back the only man she loved


 [dm]I know You don't do it [am]usually


 


 But Lord, she's dyin' to dance with my father again


 [dm]Every night I fall asleep


 


 And this is all I ever dream
