mckayleesmom replied: Sorry,,It was Luther Vandros (sp?). Im not sure the name of the song,,,probably something with dad in it. And yes, today was celeb fathers on oprah. Also I was driving home from getting something to eat and some lady called for a request, her husband died 3 weeks ago in a car accident, leaving behind her and their 2 sons, ages 10 and 13,,, and wanted to play a song for her kids to make them feel a little better. And that was the song they played,,,so there I am again, crying on my way home from hardees....Now Im going to have to go get his cd.... Also, everyone should say a little preayer for Luther Vandros cause he had a stroke a little over a month ago and is still in intensive care.....

"Dance With My Father"
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

Paul Simon - Father & Daughter If you leap awake In the mirror of a bad dream And for a fraction of a second You can't remember where you are Just open your window And follow your memory upstream To the meadow in the mountain Where we counted every falling star
I believe a light that shines on you Will shine on you forever And though I cant guarantee There's nothing scary hiding under your bed I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard At the Golden Retriever And never leave till I leave you With a sweet dream in your bed
Chorus: I'm gonna watch you shine Gonna watch you grow Gonna paint a sign So you'll always know As long as one and one is two wooo There could never be a father who loved His daughter more than I love you
Trust your intuition It's just like goin fishin' You cast your line and hope you get a bite You don't need to waste your time Worryin' about the market place Trying to help the human race Strugglin to survive its harshest hour
chorus x2
