George Strait - Love Without End, Amen lyrics
[George Strait - Love Without End, Amen lyrics]
I got sent home from school one day
With a shiner on my eye
Fighting was against the rules and
It didn't matter why
When dad got home I told that
Story just like I'd rehearsed
And then stood there on those trembling
Knees and waited for the worst
And he said, "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 I
Passed it on to him
And he said, "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"
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've done
They'll never let me in
And then somewhere from the other side
I heard these words again
And he said, "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"
With a shiner on my eye
Fighting was against the rules and
It didn't matter why
When dad got home I told that
Story just like I'd rehearsed
And then stood there on those trembling
Knees and waited for the worst
And he said, "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 I
Passed it on to him
And he said, "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"
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've done
They'll never let me in
And then somewhere from the other side
I heard these words again
And he said, "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"
