Lyrics: Love Without End Amen
Album: Livin’ It Up
Artist: George Strait
 

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
