lyrics

DADDY'S DANCE copyright ROBB CAIRNS
When you were still a baby girl
Sometimes you'd wake up at night
I would pick you up and rock you gently
As we danced in the half-light.
i would hum a lullaby
As I rocked you back to sleep
Then I'd lay you softly in your crib
And you would gently fall asleep.
DANCE, DANCE MY LITTLE ONE
WON'T YOU DANCE WITH ME?
DANCE, DANCE MY LITTLE GIRL
YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO ME.
Much later on, at your grade school
At the Daddy/Daughter dance
On the dance floor, just the two of us
Glad for our second chance.
I would hum the melody
While we're dancing to the beat
The lights were shining on the bright dance floor
And me, with two left feet! (CHORUS)
DANCE, DANCE MY LITTLE ONE
WON'T YOU DANCE WITH ME?
DANCE, DANCE MY LITTLE GIRL
YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO ME.
A few more years after college
You'll announce your wedding day
I'll gladly walk you on down the aisle
And sadly give you away.
One more Daddy/Daughter dance
And I'll hold you close and cry
I'll dream about my baby girl
How quickly time passes by.
DANCE, DANCE MY LITTLE ONE
WON'T YOU DANCE WITH ME?
DANCE, DANCE MY LITTLE GIRL
YOU MEAN THE WORLD TO ME.
