Wasn't wearin' a wedding dress in a | |
Vegas wedding chapel | |
They were herding us in and out of there like we were cattle | |
Not exactly the fairy tale that | |
I had planned | |
But mama said, “ | |
Aren't you supposed to get married, girl | |
Before you bring a baby in this world” | |
And what could | |
I say but, “ | |
Yes, ma'am” | |
And I called her from that chapel in | |
Love LandI said | |
I really love this man | |
Love LandSeemed like a lifetime driving from | |
Vegas to Oklahoma | |
If you're allowed a number of mistakes in life maybe | |
I've filled my quota | |
They called it a reception saying we did the right thing | |
And they smiled their broken smiles | |
Said, “Who needs to walk down the aisle?” | |
And I showed off my wedding ring | |
And we walked away hand in hand to | |
Love LandOh, how | |
I love this man | |
Love LandAmazing all the progress we've made since the days of | |
Thomas Edison | |
Still only | |
God gives life in spite of modern medicine | |
Doctor's voices whispered, “ | |
We did all that we could do | |
But your baby wasn't strong enough | |
To make it the whole nine months” | |
And as my world broke in two | |
He said, “ | |
I'll carry you through to | |
Love Land” | |
For the longest time | |
I blamed myself | |
Thought I was paying for my mistakes but we tried again | |
Now we're watchin' him blow three candles out | |
He's daddy's little man | |
And only God could have planned the steps | |
I've taken | |
That led me to where | |
I amLove Land | |
Anywhere you hold my hand | |
Is Love Land |
