Well my dad, I know he meant well I never heard him say what I needed I have wishful days where I hope and pray But there's still one thing that I'm missing To hear him say Well done, well done You're the son I love You'll always be good enough Well my bride to be I know she'll love well I know mistakes I'll make will leave her hurting I'll be miles away and I'll cause her pain Is my love enough when nothing's certain? I hope she'll say Well done, well done You're the one I love Even when life gets tough And I'm not useless And I'm not foolish It's just the lessons in life I learn one day at a time And I'm not useless And I'm not foolish It's just the lessons in life I learn one mistake at a time When my time has come to say my farewell I hope the life I leave would be a good one Stand before the throne of the One who loved To hear 'My faithful son, life has just begun' To hear Him say Well done, well done The mistakes you've made are buried in my grave To hear Him say Well done, well done You're the son I love You'll always be good enough
