8.Love Without End Amen
love without end amen
I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
Fightin' was against the rules and it didn't matter why
When dad got home i told that story just like i'd rehearsed
Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waitin' for the
worst
And he said...
Chorus:
Let me tell you a secret about a father's love
A secret that my daddy said was just between us
He said daddies don't just love their children every now and
then
It's a love without end, amen
It's a love without end, amen
When i became a father in the spring of '81
There was no doubt that stubborn boy was just like my father's
son
And when i thought my patience had been tested to the end
I took my daddy's secret and passed it on to him
I said...
Repeat chorus
Last night i dreamed i'd died and stood outside those pearly
gates
When suddenly i realized there must be some mistake
If they know half the things i've done, they'll never let me in
Then somewhere from the other side, i heard these words again
And they said...
Repeat chorus
