Blaine Larsen - At The Gate lyrics

rate me

Will it be my Uncle Ronnie, I barely knew him when he left

He was only nineteen when he crashed that red Corvette

Will it be my great grandmother with some cookies that she baked

Oh, I wonder who's gonna greet me at the gate

Will it be my goodfriend Matthew who spent his life in a chair

Will he coming running to me the day I get up there

Or that bully back in high school I told my Mama that I hate

Oh, I wonder who's gonna greet me at the gate

Will it be a choir of Angels with some heavenly refrain

Or Saint Peter like I've always heard with his big book of names

Will it be my old dog, Bailey, who died when I was eight

Oh, I wonder who's gonna greet me at the gate

I pray it's not my wife, my daughter or my son

Cause that would mean the good Lord took em before my time was done

Tonight, they're all sound asleep as I lie here wide awake

And I wonder who's gonna greet me at the gate

We're brought into this world with God only knows how many years

We crawl, we walk, we run, we dance

We cry a million tears

And in a flash our lives are over

And we're face to face with fate

Oh, I wonder who's gonna greet me at the gate

Who's gonna greet me at the gate
