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 rehearsed

Then stood there on those tremblin' knees and waited for the worse



CHORUS:

And he said let me tell you a secret about a father's love

A secret that my that my daddy said was just between us

He said, daddy's don't just love their children every now and then

Its a love without end, amen

Its a love without end, amen



When I became a father in the spring of '81

There was no doubt that stubourn boy was just like my father's son

And when I thought my patience had been until the end

I took my daddy's secret and I passed it on to him



-- CHORUS ( Replace He with I ) --



Last night I dreamed I died and stood outside those pearly gates

When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake

If they know half the things I done they'll never let me in

Then from somewhere from the other side I heard these words again

And they said...



-- CHORUS ( Line1 he=they/Line3 He said=You see ) --
