spin me around ´til 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.
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,
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.
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.
"爸爸跳舞"英语作文译文:
小时候，生活还没有带走所有的天真，
爸爸常把我高高举起，跟妈妈和我跳舞，然后
抱着我旋转直到我睡着。
然后他抱我上楼，
我敢肯定，他爱着我。
如果再有一次机会，和他一起走路，和他一起跳舞，
我一定要唱一首永远永远不休止的歌。
我会多么多么多么欢喜
能和爸爸再跳一次舞。
每当妈妈不听我的话，
不答应我的要求，我就从她那里跑开去找爸爸。
他总能让我笑起来，给我安慰，
然后乖乖地照妈妈说的去做。
那一天深夜，我睡得很香，
他在我的床单下塞了一块钱，
我做梦也没想到他会从此离开我。
假如我能看他最后一眼，他最后的脚步，和他跳最后一次舞，
我一定要唱一首永远永远不休止的歌，
因为我多么多么多么欢喜
能和爸爸再跳一次舞。
有时我会在妈妈的房门外偷听，
我知道她为他哭得有多伤心。
我为自己祈祷，更为她祈祷;
我为她祈祷超过为我自己。
我知道我祈求的实在太多，
但你能不能把她爱的唯一的男人送回。
我知道你一般不这么做
可是亲爱的主啊，她快要死了。
为了和爸爸再跳一次舞，
每天晚上我都睡着，而这就是我全部的梦。
