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。
