Back when I was a child
当我还是个孩子的时候
Before life removed all the innocence
在生活带走所有纯真之前
My father would lift me high
父亲会把我高高举起
And dance with my mother and me and then
和母亲与我一起跳舞
Spin me around till I fell asleep
转圈直到我入睡
Then up the stairs he would carry me
然后他会抱我上楼
And I knew for sure
那时我确信无疑
I was loved
被深深爱着
If I could get another chance
若能再有一次机会
Another walk another dance with him
与他漫步 共舞一曲
I'd play a song that would never ever end
我要让这首歌永远不停息
How I'd love love love to dance with my father again
多想再次与父亲翩翩起舞
When I and my mother would disagree
当我和母亲意见相左时
To get my way I would run from her to him
我总会躲进父亲的臂弯
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me
他总能用笑声抚慰我的心
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
最后仍会温柔地劝我听妈妈的话
Later that night when I was asleep
那夜我沉沉睡去时
He left a dollar under my sheet
他在我枕下藏了一美元
Never dreamed that he
从未想过他会
Would be gone from me
就此离我而去
If I could steal one final glance
若能偷得最后一眼
One final step one final dance with him
最后一步 与他共舞最后一曲
I'd play a song that would never ever end
我要让这首歌永远不停息
'Cause I'd love love love to dance with my father again
因为我多渴望能再与父亲共舞
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
有时我会在门外静静聆听
And I'd hear how momma would cry for him
听见母亲为他哭泣的声音
I pray for her even more than me
我为她祈祷胜过为自己
I pray for her even more than me
我为她祈祷胜过为自己
I know I'm prayin' for much too much

But could you send back the only man she loved
但能否让她深爱的男人归来
I know you don't do it usually

But dear lord she's dyin' to dance with my father again
但亲爱的上帝 她渴望与父亲再舞一曲
Every night I fall asleep
每夜入眠时
And this is all I ever dream
梦境全是你的身影
