Little Amens

It's been such long hot summer

We're waiting for fall

Some night it's like the world's on fire

Where did we go wrong

There's a fine line between what we get and what we deserve

Oh but gratitude, what a better word

I'm just a man with a dream, some kids, and a wife

Oh, and I think this is the best day of my life

It's been such a cold, cold winter

And we're waiting for spring

The bluebird's out there on the wire

But I can't hear him sing

There's a fine line between what we get and what we deserve

Oh but faith, what a better word

I'm just a man with a job, some bills, and a wife

Oh, and I think this is the best day of my life

It's a Sunday drive

Hands in wind, racing the clouds

It's a Friday night

Hands on the heart, cheer of the crowd

Oh, and I think it's raising a glass

Sharing a drink with a good friend

All these beautiful

All these wonderful

Little amens

On the porch as the Sun disappears

There's a smile on your face

And we gather around the table

Close our eyes and say grace

And I think maybe just maybe we get so much more than we deserve

Like love, what a better word

I'm just a man praying for one more day to get it right

Oh, and I think this was the best day of my life
