George Strait - Love Without End, Amen lyrics

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 pa**ed 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
