EN
He would watch my baseball games each Monday I'd go over to his house to play that dumb ol' PGA game And I didn't understand That he was just a man who'd never change I thought I was too young to present it Yeah my parents gave him everything he needed for repentance But he said that's not for me Momma cried and dad would plea while I just played Ooh, ooh All the things I should've said Ooh, ooh Maybe he would've had a chance To turn around, take the leap If I had another opportunity Would he listen to me? He was full of love and lots of laughter A good husband who was quite affectionate to my grandmother So loyal but so lost Oh you never would've thought he ran from God Ooh, ooh All the things I should've said Ooh, ooh Maybe he would've had a chance To turn around, take the leap If I had another opportunity Would he listen to me? Would he listen to me? Would he listen to me? Listen to me I'd tell him Jesus, only Jesus Can forgive every sin you have done It's not too late, please believe me Grandad you're never too far gone And as I sat there looking at the ashes The questions starting burning in my heart as I reflected What if I had spoken up? Would he have given love a second glance? No I can't blame myself for his rejection Cause probably if I shared what I believe he'd lose attention But that's what hurts me most I guess I'll never know 'Cause I missed my chance
