Dance With My Father Lyrics - Celine Dion



Review The Song (77)





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

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, yeah yeah..
Then finally make me do just what my moma said
Later that night when i want to sleep
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, love
To dance with my father again

Sometimes I’d listen outside her door
And I’d hear how mama 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

#1 Father in the Whole World | Reviewer: >Shan_Duarte< | 5/18/13

Dance with my Father Again... A song that deeply appreciated! A song that will make your tears roll down on your cheeks! My father is an overseas Filipino worker. I really, really miss him... For me his our one n' only #1 great dad in the whole world1.His like really a hero for us, he work hard in order to give as the best education that he can afford. During his vacation here in the Philippines, we all want to have memorable n' unforgettable memories with him. So that he can bring it when he'll leave... On April 29, 2013 my father need to leave as. Before he leave I gave him a Doodle Art n' the theme is "I Love You Papa Syeh", i really made a big effort for that art so, when he look for it he will remember our good memories. For you Papa, "I LOVE YOU SOOOOO MUCH, YOU DESERVE A PAUSE, A KISS, A THANKS GIVING N' AN HONOR! I MISS YOU SO MUCH PAPA >Shan<

It's a very meaningful and beautiful song. I loved listening to this song
reminds me of my father who pass away 28 years ago.
I am just curious if the artist who sang this song would like to have
someone write a female version of the song for mothers too.
It would be a great duet for a female and male singer to do the song.
Thank you. I hope to see it in the audio stores one of these days.

when i hear this song, who performed by the best American singer Celine Dion, I remember my beloved Father He passed on May 13, 2012. I can't imagine that our father was passed away so many tears are falling in my eyes i can't accept that He was died. I only wish for you Dad that you are happy and don't worry we are always in good health. And Dad i promise that i study very well and i swear too that i can be a best Doctor someday. ' We miss and love
you Dad' mwahh....


Very touching | Reviewer: Anna | 8/25/12

Very nice song, every time I hear this song and sing it, I always cry. I always remember my father. I can't really finish singing this song coz I started to cry. I really miss my Dad. he scolded me sometimes when I was a child but now I realized that it's for my own good. He just wanted me to be a good person. He got sick and died a couple of years ago and we really do miss him. I LOVEYOU DAD.

If i could just be with daddy again | Reviewer: Kaye pawah | 7/29/12

My dad was sick for how many years and already passed away. I had many chance to tell him i love him so much but i didnt grab it. [thats my biggest regret when i lost him] I have told dad that i love him only through text.. I never th0ught dad he would left us that day cause he texted me and told me that his fine. My dad is a very l0ving father. His jokes, smiles, and songs will forever stay in my heart.. ILOVEYOU DADDY..

my father is away from me | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/6/12

my father always hang out to his friend and drank beers. my mother and father always fight.i dont want see them fight each other so that i run to my room and close my door. But later on i love my father and mother because they always prtect me from stagers.
I LOVE YOU PAPA

even though he always scold me i'm still for him. | Reviewer: creamgirl | 4/26/12

my father is always there for me. even though every occasion his not there, forever he is still my father. my father and mother fight. when they fight i can't stop crying. they would say " maybe we should broke up" and i would say that you should not broke up. maybe you can just fix things up. i can't forgive myself if you two fight each other. i'm the reason why you two fight. my father protects from everything. every scratch i have he would be angry because her little girl is crying. no other father can love me. you are the only father that can love me every single of your life.

i love you dad | Reviewer: sweet diana | 7/12/11

tears will always fill my eyes as i hear this song. it's so memorable for my father. he always comfort me whenever i'm uncomfortable. he's the first to see the feasible and possible outcomes based on the situations i encounter.

yes, he's a strict dad but i loved the way he made it...for without it i might haven't finished my studies and land for this satisfying lifestyle.

thank you dad.

thank you for the voice of celine dion that added much beauty and sicerity of this song :)
