Songtexte A Long Line of Love - Michael Martin Murphey

I bought a beautiful diamond ring
I offered it to the sweetest thing I know
And she said she would take it
We started making some wedding plans
She looked at me and she took my hand
And said are you sure we can make it
I said my grand dad's still in love with my grandma
I said my dad still thinks my mom's the sweetest thing he ever saw

I come from a long line of love
When the times get hard
We don't give up
Forever's in my heart and in me blood
You see I come from a long line of love

Years went by and we had a son
Now he thinks he found someone for him
And they're planning a wedding
He called me up on the phone today
Just to see what I had to say to him
Did I think he was ready?
I said what his grandfather used to say to me
It's been handed down for ages, it runs in our family

You come from a long line of love
When the times get hard
We don't give up

Forever is in your heart and in your blood
Son, you come from a long line of love

We come from a long line of love
