| She spins and she sways to whatever song plays,
|
| Without a care in the world.
|
| And I’m sitting here wearing the weight of the world on my shoulders.
|
| It’s been a long day and there’s still work to do,
|
| She’s pulling at me saying «Dad I need you!
|
| There’s a ball at the castle and I’ve been invited and I need to practice my dancin'»
|
| «Oh please, daddy, please!»
|
| So I will dance with Cinderella
|
| While she is here in my arms
|
| 'Cause I know something the prince never knew
|
| Oh I will dance with Cinderella
|
| I don’t want to miss even one song
|
| 'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
|
| And she’ll be gone.
|
| She says he’s a nice guy and I’d be impressed
|
| She wants to know if I approve of the dress
|
| She says, «Dad the prom is just one week away
|
| And I need to practice my dancin'
|
| «Oh please, daddy, please!»
|
| So I will dance with Cinderella
|
| While she is here in my arms
|
| 'Cause I know something the prince never knew
|
| Oh I will dance with Cinderella
|
| I don’t want to miss even one song
|
| 'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
|
| And she’ll be gone
|
| But she came home today with a ring on her hand
|
| Just glowin' and tellin' us all they had planned
|
| She says, «Dad the wedding’s still six months away but I need to practice my dancin'
|
| «Oh please, daddy, please!»
|
| So I will dance with Cinderella
|
| While she is here in my arms
|
| 'Cause I know something the prince never knew
|
| Oh I will dance with Cinderella
|
| I don’t want to miss even one song
|
| 'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
|
| And she’ll be gone |
