Dance With My Father 与父共舞
四届格莱美奖得主，Ｒ＆Ｂ音乐教父级人物路德·范德斯 Luther Vandross，在 2004 年的格莱美奖上，一曲《Dance With My Father》感动无数乐迷，令他一举拿下年度最佳单曲、最佳蓝调歌手和最佳蓝调专辑三项大奖。可惜他因健康情况未能出席，以录影带的方式带去了他的祝福和感言：“记住，我一定会再回来的，因为，我相信爱的力量！” 随着前奏缓缓响起，一些很原始的情感也会开始慢慢地涌动。返璞归真的歌词极尽平凡，轻盈弥漫的节奏带走所有沉重!
这首歌曲是Luther Vandross自己真实的故事 一个7岁孩子的记忆 一点点忧伤更多地却是那些遥远而温暖的细节和情绪在歌曲中倾注了自己对父亲深深的怀念 清淡的钢琴伴奏 和他伤感的演唱 在爱里透露出更多的是伤感.
英文歌词
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
中文歌词
在我孩提时
当天真还未被生活吞噬
父亲常将我高高举起
同母亲和我共舞
又抱起我直到我安睡
然后抱我上楼
我确信我被深爱着
如果我可以在有一个机会
与他在漫步一次,再共舞一次
我会弹奏一支永无止境的歌曲
我是多么想再次与父亲共舞
当我与母亲想法不一致
不听话的我就跑去找父亲
他会哄我,安慰我
最后依然要我照妈妈说的做
那天晚上当我熟睡
他在被单下留下一块钱
从为想到他会离我而去！
假如我能最后偷看一眼
与他跳最后一步,舞最后一次
我会弹奏一支永无止境的歌曲
因为我是多么想再次与父亲共舞
有时我在母亲的门旁倾听
我听到他为父亲而哭泣
我为她祈祷胜过我自己
我为她祈祷胜过我自己
我知道我祈求的东西太多
但是上帝！
你能否送回她唯一爱过的男人
我知道你通常不这样做
但是亲爱的上帝.
她是多么想再次与父亲共舞
每天夜里当我熟睡着.
这是我唯一的梦。
