Our Dancing Song

so for my dad's christmas present i got him a record player...but i also wrote him this song & then recorded it for him...its pretty personal. the first verse describes a dance recital i was in when i was 5, and he was in it with me. the second is my senior prom. the chorus, basically when i was little my dad and i always dance around the house, to james taylor, van morrison, all those guys, and so its a picture of my childhood. the last verse describes what is to come (if it is in God's will for my life that is) i guess we will just wait and see...but here are the lyrics!

Our Dancing Song

i'm in a red tutu
you're in a black suit
dancing me 'round on the tops of your feet
oh daddy, its you and me


i'm in my prom dress
you're on the stairs stressed
waving goodbye to my handsome date and i
oh daddy, i wont be home late


(chorus)
so lets dance the night away
just you and me
sway me back and forth
twirl me around
i wont ever get bored
cause with you daddy i would dance
all night long
& this is our dancing song


i'm in a lace gown
your smiles upside down
he promises that he'll take good care of me
oh daddy, just wait and see

so lets dance the night away

just you and me 

sway me back and forth

twirl me around

i wont ever get bored

cause with you daddy i would dance

all night long

& this is our dancing song
