戌狗』。『花花的世界

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

There once was love thrown into your room
But you never knew
A calendar of days just for you
But you never knew, never knew no
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
There once were eyes that only saw you
But you never knew
A portrait of a flower in full bloom
But you never knew, never knew no
And the words you hear
Will always be the words you hear
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
This space where you've been living
Has gifts you've never given
That's the face you always show
Ask me for words of wisdom
Tell me of your condition
I don't know, I don't
I don't know
And the truth that you'll find will always be
The truth you hide
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
So how do you love, how do you love
When your angels can't sing, and your world is still
Lacking of me
