Little Amens

It's been such a long hot summer

We're waiting for fall

Some nights 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

Well it's been such a cold cold winter

We're waiting for spring

Yeah, 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 the wind, racing the clouds

It's a Friday night

Hand 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

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
