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
Spend me around till 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 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

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

Verse 3:
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
I'd hear how my mother cried for him
(2x) I'd 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

mahal na mahal ko ang papa ko.
una kong narinig ang kanta na ito kay maam Jamie.
pinarinig niya samin as an introduction for our story.
alam niyo ba habang pinapakinggan ko ito.
naaalala ko ung mga araw na binubuhat ako ni papa paakyat sa kwarto ko.
tapos ung magsasayaw kami kapag merong okasyon.
tas ung mga tawa niya kapag nagbibiruan kami.
tas ung mga ngiti niya kahit sa paggising lang ng umaga.
tas ung mga achievements niya na lagi kong pinapansin
at ung lagi kong sinasabi na. WOW!!!

oo ganun ko kamahal ang tatay ko though maraming nagsasabi na kapag police, militar or anything na disciplinarian... ang iyong tatay iisipin nila konserbatibo. masyadong malinis. masyadong madisiplina.

well. jan kayo nagkakamali,
ang tatay ko. kala mo bata. laging masayahin. pero oo. nakakatakot kapag galit siya. kaya nga di namin siya pinapagalit ehh:p
takot kami kapag nagagalit siya kasi kapag nagagalit siya... parang isang malaking halimaw! oo promise. pero kahit na magalit siya ng ganun kagrabe after a few hours... lalapitan kami nyan tas ngingiti at ayun bati na ulit kami. tas good mood na rin siya.:D

CLOSE BA KAMI?
oo close kami. pero, nakakainis kasi... trabaho na lang niya laging nakikita niya. at oo namimiss ko na ang bonding namin. kelan kaya? sana malapit na.

ung kantang to? nappaiyak niya ako (not literally.)
kaya kung ako sa inyo. wag niyong kaayawan tatay niyo. mahalin niyo.
sobrang pagmamahal ba:)

kayo rin.
maiisip niyo na lang bigla.
