Father’s Dance

VERSE:

beaming in her fancy dress
she’d just turned sweet sixteen
the class formal was finally here
she’d dreamt about it all spring 

but the one whose name she drew in hearts
didn’t ask her to spin around  the floor 
and as she dried her eyes on her front porch
her daddy opened up the door

CHORUS:

he said beautiful girl
won’t you take my hand

 he twirled her about
and she laughed….
‘cause or a moment
heartache passed

as he held her she felt
the power of
the unconditional love

….in her fathers dance

VERSE:

And as she grew older
life’s struggles had left her jaded
she felt her heart grow colder
as the light inside had faded

she called out in dark despair
I’m so afraid and I’ve lost my way
and she felt the warmth of hope again
mmmm….. from a higher place


CHORUS:

my precious child 
won’t you take my hand

and he picked her up
from the ground
oh and he didn’t
set her down

and as he held her she felt
the power of
the unconditional love

… in our father’s dance



bridge: there’s a time to mourn, a time to laugh, a time to cry….. and a time to dance.

CHORUS:

my precious child 
won’t you take my hand

and he picked her up
from the ground
oh and he didn’t
set her down

and as he held her she felt
the power of
the unconditional love

… in our father’s dance
