Joseph O'brien - Listen To Me
Intro
Verse
He Would Watch My Baseball Games Each Monday
I'd Go Over To His House To Play That Dumb Old Pga Game
And I Didn’t Understand
That He Was Just A Man Who'd Never Change
And 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
Chorus
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
Verse 3
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
Chorus 2
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
Oh, Would He List To Me
Oh, Would He List To Me
Listen To Me
Bridge
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
Verse 4
And As I Sat There Looking At The Ashes
The Questions Started 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 Believed He'd Lose Attention
But That’s What Hurts Me Most
I Guess I'll Never Know 'Cause I Missed My Chance
