Whitney Houston - Didn`t We Almost Have It All

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 one
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 disagreed
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'd never ever end
Cos I'd love love love
to dance with
my father again
Sometimes
I'd listen outside the door
And I'd hear how my mama
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
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 one
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 disagreed
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'd never ever end
Cos I'd love love love
to dance with
my father again
Sometimes

And I'd hear how my mama

I pray for her even
more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying

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
