Spinning around on the tops of his feet
Smiles of the angels could not be so sweet
Wide blue eyes and picky-tails swirl
She's her daddy's girl
'Cause he knows the jokes that always make her laugh
He takes her for ice cream instead of her nap
At the end of the day by the light of the moon
They turn up the music in their living room
And she yells
Dance me, dance me around
Till my feet don't ever touch down
There's nothing better than being your girl
And if I am your princess, then daddy
You are the king of the world
It's funny how life moves in circles a time
To think not so long ago that face was mine
Houses get smaller we take different names
But some things in life stay the same
Dance me, dance me around
Till my feet don't ever touch down
There's nothing better than being your girl
And if I am your princess, then daddy
You are the king of the world
Someday she'll go off
And find a life of her own
And marry a good man
And make a happy home
Until she comes back
And sees with those same eyes
What time can not disguise
She walks through the door with that look on her face
'Cause daddy's brown hair has all turned to gray
They talk for hours, they cry and they laugh
Watching old movies and thinking back
Just as she turns to go
She says, "Hey dad
How about one for the road?"
Dance me, dance me around
Till my feet don't ever touch down
Dance me, dance me around
Till my feet don't ever touch down
'Cause there's nothing better than being your girl
No no, there's nothing better than being your girl
And if I am your princess, then daddy
You are the king of the world
King of the world
Spinning around on the tops of his feet
Smiles of the angels could not be so sweet
