She spins and she sways To whatever song plays Without a care in the world And I am sitting here wearing The weight of the world on my shoulders It is been a long day And There is still work to do She is pulling at me saying Dad, I need you There is a ball at the castle And I have been invited And I need to practice my dancing 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 do not wanna miss even one song Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight And she will be gone She says he is a nice guy and I will be impressed She wants to know if I approve of her dress She says, Dad, the prom is just one week away And I need to practice my dancing 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 do not wanna miss even one song Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight And she will be gone She will be gone Well, she came home today with a ring on her hand Just glowing and telling us all they had planned She says, Dad, the wedding is still six months away But I need to practice my dancing 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 do not wanna miss even one song Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight And she will be gone
