單曲欣賞： Dance With My Father (圖)

Dance With My Father -- Luther Vandross 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 　　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 與父共舞 　　小時候， 　　天真懵懂。 　　父親會把我高高舉起， 　　跟我和母親一起翩翩起舞。 　　然後， 　　抱著我轉圈，直到我入睡。 　　父親會把我抱上樓。 　　我知道父親深深愛著我。 　　如果我還有一次機會， 　　跟父親散步，與父親共舞， 　　我會放一首永遠不會結束的曲子。 　　我是多麽想 　　再跟父親跳一次舞。 　　當我不想聽母親話的時候， 　　我就會跑到父親跟前。 　　他會想辦法讓我笑起來，安慰我。 　　但是最後讓我照母親的話去做。 　　那一晚在我睡覺的時候， 　　他在我的床單下放了一塊錢。 　　從來沒有想過父親會離開我。 　　如果我能再看父親一眼， 　　再邁出一步舞步， 　　再跟父親跳最後一支舞。 　　我會放一首永遠不會結束的曲子。 　　因為我是多麽想 　　再跟父親跳一次舞。 　　有時候我會在母親的門外， 　　聽見她思念父親的哭聲。 　　我為母親祈禱… 　　我為母親祈禱... 　　我知道我的要求有點過分， 　　但是你能不能 　　把她唯一深愛的男人送回來？ 　　我知道你一般不會這麽做， 　　但是我的主啊， 　　她是多麽想再和父親共舞啊！ 　　每晚入睡以後， 　　同樣的夢境重複出現…
