Lyrics:

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
