the common linnets - when love was king lyrics
when pain didn’t reign and love was king
we could wash our hands of most anything
i inherited my father’s sin
i was born and raised in the midst of it
before a preacher spoke those words in red
and holy men would bow their heads
before i was the man i am
the oldest son of abraham
the day i drowned in fire and stone
i found out what i’d always known
i still remember, i still see
a heart that trusts, and a voice that sings
when pain didn’t reign and love was king
my daddy was a gambler, a drinking man
he showed his love with the back of his hand
i never saw him smile, not a flicker of grace
think he burried them with mamma in the tennessee clay
the day i drowned in fire and stone
i found out what i’d always known
i still remember, i still see
a heart that trusts, and a voice that sings
when pain didn’t reign and love was king
the day i drowned in fire and stone
i found out what i’d always known
but i still remember, i still see
a heart that trusts, and a voice that sings
when pain didn’t reign and love was king
a heart that trusts, and a voice that sings
when pain didn’t reign and love was king
