He didn′t have the answers to half the questions his son asked him
A child's mind is a curious thing
But when his son hugged him and said, "Dad, you know I love you
How much do you love me?"
Daddy didn′t have to think
With his arms open wide
Just as far as they could go
He said, "As far as I can reach
Is not enough to show
I would give my life for you
You are my flesh and blood
I love you this much"
She stood there crying, broken-hearted, looking up at him
And said, "Why are you doing this?" (Why are you doing this?)
He looks down at her, wanting to hold her and wipe her tears away
He has to leave and that's the way it is (That's the way it is)
She gave her son one last kiss
With her arms open wide
Just as far as they could go
She said, "As far as I can reach
Is not enough to show
I would give my life for you
You are my flesh and blood
I love you this much"
And they raised his broken body above the crowd
Drove in the nails as the rain came down
With his arms open wide
Just as far as they could go
He said, "As far as I can reach
Is not enough to show
I would give my life for you
You are my flesh and blood
I love you this much
I love you this much"
