📃Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
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 'til I fell asleep
Then up the stairs, he would carry me
And I knew for sure
I was loved

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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 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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how mama would cry for him
I'd pray for her even more than me
I'd pray for her even more than me

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Every night I fall asleep
And this is all I ever dream

I lost my father last May 20, 2025. I love you Pa and I miss you so much.

[roelcalatay]

November 27, 2024 was the most painful day in my entire life. Papa left me without talking to me. I miss his voice, his face, how he is protected to me and all act well for me. I'm very disappointed in myself for not showing him in his last breath. The memories of the past keep showing in my mind. I keep saying that I'm not ready to lose a parent but my nightmare happens. I don't know how to accept the fact that my father left me without any words, I don't know how to accept his death. Pang, kabalo kong naa ka sa langit karon, I really really miss you so badly, I can't believe na wala naka sa akong tapad to cheer me up if maglisod ko, inag naa koy question about our ancestors. Pls guide me for whatever path I made. This is for you, LOVE YOU MY ANGEL🕊️😘

[JeqnMoon]

[shirleypatten]

The song is sad enough. But the line about his mom dying to dance with his father again just rips my heart apart.
