Mansions in Glory
by John Dennis

Album: Eternity's Tree


God draws the lines,
I just color them in
Oh it's always been a picturebook story,
And You never can lose if you only can win,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,

Oh love don't you know what today is?
It's the same as we met way back when,
When we danced in the dirt and wore Beatles tshirts,
And we ran with our backs to the wind,
And it didn't take long til I told you
I was frightened to let a girl in,
But after kissing my cheek, you proceeded to speak,
And while grinning your innocent grin, you said,

God draws the lines,
I just color them in
Oh it's always been a picturebook story,
And You never can lose if you only can win,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,

And who could forget what would follow?
A love that we couldn't conceive,
Forged deep in our souls in eternity's coals,
And still carved in that Sycamore tree,
And oh how I hated to leave you,
When I headed for old Tennessee,
But we talked through the night,
You laughed while I cried,
And said "Love, you've jut got to believe, that,

God draws the lines,
I just color them in
Oh it's always been a picturebook story,
And You never can lose if you only can win,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,

But no words of goodbye,
No "Honey, I hate to leave so soon"
You went to the light and left me here,
Shouting your name at the moon,
Will I see you again?
Oh, honey I wish that I knew,
But the truth is, deep down,
I think that I do
Least I hope that I do,
I hope that I do,

Oh love don't you know what today is?
It's the first of the rest of my life,
It's been three bitter years since we buried you here,
And I still chase your voice in the night,
But I'll never forget what you showed me,
How one day we all have to die,
But this road that we're on is no more than a song,
And our love will live on by and by,

God draws the lines,
I just color them in
Oh it's always been a picturebook story,
And You never can lose if you only can win,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,
Since we all get a Mansion in Glory,
