The song was written after his oldest daughter announced her engagement. He was giving the two youngest (Stevey Joy & Maria) a bath one night and had scolded them for playing around too much when he had a lot to do, and after they'd gone to sleep he felt God telling him that here he was wondering where time had gone with his oldest girl, yet he was rushing his little ones through their childhood. It was already on the radio before Maria passed away.

JordanShe spins and she sways
To whatever song plays
Without a care in the world
And I'm sitting here wearing
The weight of the world on my shoulders
It's been a long day
And there's still work to do
She's pulling at me
Saying "Dad, I need you
There's a ball at the castle
And I've 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 don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone...
She says he's a nice guy and I'd be impressed
She wants to know if I approve of the 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 don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll 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's 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 don't want to miss even one song
'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight
And she'll be gone

What is the tattoo Steven Curtis Chapman has?
He has two. One is on his left bicep..... If I remember correctly, it is the flower that his daughter Maria drew the day she died. The other is a sign of the Waodoni Tribe tattooed on the inside of his ankle, a sign of the missionaries whose encounter led him to write the song "God Follower" on his Speechlessalbum.See the flower picture below in the related links.In SCC's own words (about his ankle tattoo):When they [the Waodoni Tribesmen] go to the jungle, they take this plant and they make a dye and they put these designs on the inside of their arms and then they call themselves "God followers," and I wrote a song called "God Follower" about that tribe. So I created this little symbol on my own. ... I created this symbol with a G, with the F inside of it, so the Follower is inside the Big G. And kind of put that in the middle of my tattoo.
