To Waltz With My Mother Again

(专辑： Ten - 2018)

In a little dancehall, only seven years tall
I'd wait to watch my daddy play
On holidays from school, thinking I was so cool
To be up, staying out late
With my fears, he drank, I'd sit and I'd sing
Every song, every word
Till mammy would ask me out for a dance
Oh, how in love was my world

Lord, once more, give us an encore
To feel the way I felt back then
'Cause I'd give everything for my daddy to sing
So I could waltz with my mother again

That was the start of songs in my heart
As sweet harmony filled our home
Given only the best till we flew the nest
To go build a world of our own
Then one Summer day, God called her away
To watch over us from above
Now every night, under the spotlight
I feel the strength of her love

Oh Lord, once more, give us an encore
Just like it was way back then
'Cause I'd give everything for my daddy to sing
So I could waltz with my mother again

Lord, once more, give us an encore
To feel the way I felt back then
'Cause I'd give everything for my daddy to sing
So I could waltz with my mother again

One day, with God's grace, I feel her embrace
And I waltz with my mother again
