Luther Vandross去世前最後的一張album
這張專輯在完成後Luther就中風了
之後昏迷長達半年，雖然期間他有醒來
並在46th Grammy Awards贏得了四座大獎
但那時Luther因中風身體狀況相當不樂觀
並未出席是由他的母親替他上台領獎
46thGrammy的頒獎禮，當時在話筒出錯
的情況下，Celine Dion演唱了它，作為向
Vandross致敬的一個部分（也最令人動容）
Celine Dion當時也剛遭逢父喪，
演唱這首歌時的神情格外的讓人動容
Dance with 在Celine甫演唱完畢，Luther透過VCD
向他的朋友＆歌迷們表達感謝之意。
2005年7月1日，Luther Vandross去世享年54歲。
Dance with my Father -Luther Vandross
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
當我還是個孩子的時候
在歲月把所有的純真帶走以前
我的父親總喜歡把我舉得高高的
與我母親共舞、與我共舞
他會抱著我旋轉，直到我睡著為止
然後他會背著我上樓去
我很清楚我是被愛的
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
每當我和母親起爭執的時候
為了如我所願，我總會跑到父親的身邊
他會安慰我、逗我開心
最後讓我心甘情願地照我母親說的去做
當天晚上我睡覺的時候
他會放一塊錢在我的床單下
我從來沒有夢到過有一天他會離我而去
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
如果我還能有另一次機會
與他一起散步、與他共舞的話
我將放一首永遠永遠不會結束的歌曲
我多麼多麼想再一次與我父親共舞啊
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
有時候我在她的門外傾聽
我聽到她在為我父親哭泣
我為她祈禱更甚於為我自己
我為她祈禱更甚於為我自己
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
我知道我祈求得太多太多
但您能不能把她今生唯一愛過的男人還給她？
我知道您通常不會這麼做
可是親愛的上帝
她是如此渴望與我父親再共舞一次啊
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream
每晚入睡時，我都是這麼夢想著
