[verse 1]
The years pass so quickly,
But long is the day
Whenever such thoughts come to mind
A pause to consider
The years that remain,
Far fewer than those left behind.
[climb 1]
And Time gets the best of us all
So much is forgotten,
But I still recall
[chorus]
I'm dancing with my daughter,
With eyes clear and bright,
I'm dancing with my daughter,
In white
I can still feel each turn and reel,
See each joyous glance,
And Time or age will never fade
The mem'ry of this dance.
[verse 2]
The first time I held her,
So wondrous and new,
I christened her cheek with a kiss.
And who could imagine
A moment like that
Would come to a moment like this?
[climb 2]
When mem'ries are all that remain,
Theres one I still cherish
Again and again
[chorus]
[bridge]
Shes lithe and fair as Venus,
Yet my little girl,
I'm standing tall as Atlas
And can shoulder the world! When
[chorus with modulation]
The mem'ry of this dance.
