Wayne, Jimmy - I Love You This Much Lyrics






He can't remember
The times that he thought
Does my daddy love me?
Probably not
That didn't stop him
From wishing that he did
Didn't keep him from wanting
Or worshipping him

He guesses he saw him
About once a year
He could still feel the way he felt
Standing in tears
Stretching his arms out
As far as they'd go
Whispering daddy
I want you to know

[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much

He grew to hate him for what he had done
'cause what kind of father
Could do that to his son?
He said 'damn you daddy'
The day that he died
The man didn't blink
But the little boy cried

[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much

Half way through the service
While the choir sang a hymn
He looked up above the preacher
And he sat and stared at him

He said
'forgive me father'
When he realized
That he hadn't been unloved
Or alone all his life
His arms were stretched out
As far as they'd go
Nailed to the cross
For the whole world to know

[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much

Wayne, Jimmy I Love You This Much Comments
  1. W.... B....

    I love my millionair family. Sarcasm feels great. I'm so glad I'm so far away.

  2. G.... L....

    Odd this guy as never been the most beautiful man of the year

  3. B.... C....

    My dad hates me

  4. M.... S....

    I was adopted when I was 5... my sister as well who was 4. My adopted parents wanted a girl, but I told them at 5 yrs old "if you take my sissy...you have to take me too... My adopted dad has cystic fibrosis yet played football for Kansas State, was a fitness buff, and farmer.. He was my hero growing up.. always in instilling family values as a way of life... when I grew up I made some poor choices which lead to me moving 1500 miles away... I remember thinking " I've never heard my dad say hes proud of me"... to this day, even though I live only 3 hrs away now, and visit constantly and DO have a good relationship with my dad.... I've yet to hear those words... I hope to hear them someday.

  5. Y.... I....

    Neither of my parents loved me. But Jesus does.

  6. A.... L....

    When I finally came to this realization, that I had never been alone, it changed my life.

  7. v.... ....

    This will always be one of my all time favorite songs. It doesn't matter have poor your earthly dad might have been once you realize your Heavenly Father will always love you.

  8. m.... u....

  9. B.... L....

    Brad love Brad Sr this much

  11. K.... ....

    What happend to Jimmy ...not in the music business’s no more or?

  12. R.... C....

    Anyone else want to take the first dad and pound on him?

  13. W.... B....

    I remember asking for my key back from a friend at the time and he said while in the street here's your dam key back and threw it back at me as hard as he could and screaming at the top of his lungs at 1am.

  14. L.... B....

    Damn this song reminds me of my dad he was never involved in my life and still isn’t. I remember as a kid when he would come to my moms house to pick up things it was never to even see me even though I would beg for even a hug he would ignore me. The day he dies he will know that I always loved him

  15. L.... C....

  25. k.... ....

    read his autobiography. seriously.

  26. M.... T....

    When all your life, you live to seek in hunger for that nagging question of what truly defines manhood and fatherhood. And behind that quest for an answer is that flaming anger for the love you never get to understand, the love that you sought from the man you were taught to be your father. Only to be blessed with the love of the Son of God and the Heavenly Father. Something that is beyond logical understanding. Always there, when you needed it the most...

  27. L.... T....

    Absolutely a Beautiful song!!

  28. T.... K....

    Hi my name is Tom I really love this song I Never Had a father that I know of I had a stepfather but she was a child molester and a wife beater and a child beater my mom at 5 years old I can remember this like it was yesterday I am 58 years old right now my mom told me I was a mistake she never loved me and never will I can remember growing up I never got shoes I never got pants if it wasn't for my grandpa and grandma I wouldn't had any clothes at all my brothers and sisters were all treated like kings and queens I always kept a smile on my face but now I am 58 years old I've never forgotten all this I am very ill I have had 6 heart surgeries 1 stroke and my kidneys are failing I do not know if he is a Christian or Justice Christian singer or whatever he is but he is a very good man I can tell by the way he sings He has been hurt in the past so please forgive me for saying this but I just had to get this off my chest I want to go now and see Jesus I keep on having a dream over and over it's a woman waving at me and then I start walking towards her and then I wake up I am tired I am sore and I hurt all the time I just want to go home thank you for your time

  29. J.... T....

    The love everyone is seeking has already sought us.. Our Father God gave us his son, and his son gave us his life, so we can live as one with Him.

  30. c.... s....

    Beautiful Song....Thank You

  31. B.... M....

    It's cause of songs like this I am the loving father i am. My kid never has to question her daddys love.

  32. Z.... C....

    It's been 6 years since my dad passed away this song still hits the heart hard

  33. M.... S....

    I had a lot of respect for Jimmy Wayne until I asked him how he felt about the refugee children crossing the Mexican border. I didn't attack him. I just asked. He said I don't really care about foster kids. How those people - children and adults - are being treated by the Trump administration is not biblical. I bought 12 copies of "Paper Angels" to give as Christmas presents. I bought a few copies of "Walk to Beautiful." I'm not in the position to adopt kids. Jimmy hasn't adopted kids or fostered kids either. Yet I dont really care about foster kids? I volunteer at events for dogs and kids when I can. I dont make a living as as keynote speaker talking about foster kids aging out of the system. Put your money where your mouth is, Jimmy.

    And you're not the only person abandoned by his mother. I had family to turn to, but even people that have never been abandoned by their parent can and do actually care about foster kids. And if people sont really care, why bother with the keynote speeches? Right. It's a paycheck.

  34. J.... L....

    🙏🙏🙏

  35. M.... B....

    I love to hear him sing because Every time I hear him, I learn something about myself!

  36. B.... C....

    I'm a out cast to my dad this is how I feel about him

  37. j.... J....

    God is my father

  38. R.... D....

    I lOve you this Much Raina Hyerin!

  39. S.... T....

    Jimmy I love that song

  40. J.... D....

    Just read Jimmy's book. "Walk to Beautiful". ( The Power of love and a homeless kid who found the way). It was written in 2010, I think. Man, you all need to read this book to see what a life Jimmy has had. Unbelievable. He is an absolute Champion, to go through the life he has endured, and come out of it, an amazing singer and a beautiful Man with such a loving soul. . He has shown such strength which not many of us could have even imagine. Bless you Jimmy Wayne. I love you and admire your courage.

  41. S.... L....

    2019 of May: I am enjoying the message of this song.

  42. J.... B....

    I was fortunate to have my dad in my life for 32 years. I was twenty when this song came out. I still love it to this day. It sucks that Jimmy was a victim of the Sophomore Jynx..

  43. a.... r....

    i love this song i have tears everytime i listen to it

  44. B.... P....

    When i was 5 my dad walked away for 9 years it took a long time for me to be ok with him not being around
    Fast forward to me being 26 my husband of 9 years walked away from my 3 children and poof just like that hes been gone ever since i can just imagine what goes through their head or i can hear what goes through my heart on a daily basis.

  45. K.... &....

    I feel this way about my mom.. the song speaks so much truth.. ❤️

  46. I.... m....

    this cured my long time depression. i fractured my pinky toe, and was bed ridden for months. i had no motivation to continue my life, it mainly consisted of lying in bed and sleeping. after i heard this song, i jumped out of bed and screamed "THANK YOU LORD!" my pinky toe no longer ached and i went for a run around the block immediately. i blasted on repeat for weeks, and even learned how to play it on ukulele. thank you jimmy for inspiring me to not be like that other depressed losers out there lol !

  47. S.... A....

    My Dad has never been much of Dad. He supported us financially but in no other way. He cheated on Mom a lot and they finally divorced after over 30 years of marriage. She deserved better and so did we. I haven't spoken to him in over 15 years. My brother and sister have a relationship with him but, in addition to leaving my Mom, he abandoned my son, his grandson, when he left and I could not find it in me to move past that. My son just could not understand why his Pawpaw was suddenly not there. My children deserved more than that. They wouldn't know him if they saw him on the street. But, now, he is dying. The cancer is so very close to ending his life. He made his choices long ago. So, now I am left with a choice. Do I try and make peace with him before death claims him or do I leave him to the choices he made so many years ago? I am torn. My mother died in December 2018. She was the kindest soul you will ever meet. She never spoke badly of him and never judged me when I made the choice all those years ago to not put my children through his here today and gone tomorrow behavior. My sister says he has changed in the last few years. His declining health has made him realize the mistakes he made. He told my sister he loves her today when she visited him. I have never heard my father say those words to me. The little girl part of me so wants to hear those words but the adult part of me doesn't think words will ever be enough to make up for the past. I will need to make this choice quickly, as he will not be here much longer, but I am struggling. I pray God will guide me on what I should to do.

  48. J.... R....

    Great song ♥♥♥♥♥

  49. C.... M....

    This song is sad 😭 I know the feeling my dad said I was died to him and all I have is my mom

  50. J.... M....

    My mom had never been there for me but I love her no matter how much I'm pushed away I met her when I truned 16

  51. A.... T....

    This hits home . I'm 36 and my dad has never really been around. Him and my mom tried when I was younger but it didnt work out . I tried years later as an adult , and even stopped to visit him to try and start a relationship, but never hear from him. I was even in a bad car wreck about 1 1/2 ago ,almost didnt make it and never heard anything from him.

  52. r.... w....

    Whatever happened to he?

  53. S.... H....

    😭😭😭😭Bkt nga ba kc my mga magulang na ayaw nla sa anak😭😭😭😭😭

  54. a.... l....

    Dad I love you this much do you love me

  55. S.... B....

    I was fine till the Jesus verse so sweet. That’s my relationship with God

  56. K.... S....

    Touching song.

  57. J.... W....

    My dad died April 2nd of last year. He had brain cancer. He was always a drinker and he never showed emotion. Especially to me or my sister. He was sent off to prison when I was 13. A year and a half later, he got out. Sober. I begged him to stay clean, but he reverted back to his old ways. I despised him for that for 14 years, until the day he died. Now I'm 31. Even though he was a mean drunk, I still loved my dad. RIP Gregory Scott Whitaker 2/26/1966 - 4/2/2018

  58. L.... 3....

    ✝️Jesus as father when your earthly father fails. Because Jesus never fails ✝️ !! (Moral of the song)

  59. A.... E....

    This song tears my heart in two just cuz the fact my dad has never been here for me or my brother and it cuts deep cuz he always acted like he didn't dive a damn about us and even though he's still alive I started to hate him after years of physical and mental abuse I realize now the man upstairs has always been here with me and my brother through everything

  60. F.... E....

    Both the kid and singer looks like a one diarection star!

  61. R.... A....

    However..some people should probably not procreate.. .

  62. R.... A....

    I'm sure being a parent puts things a little more in perspective of how god must see us....he probably sees us all and thinks "what are you doing dumbass?" Like 25 times a day...at least...LOL

  63. E.... T....

    "I love you this much, and im waiting on you to make up your mind. Do you love me too? How ever long it takes, im never giving up. No matter what, i love you this much" ---- God

  64. R.... S....

    My heart is broken for you. I wish I could change everything terrible that you went through. Tears streaming nonstop hearing your songs and your interview about your childhood. You touched my soul in 2003 when I heard Stay Gone. I wondered for a long time what happened to you and why so long between albums. I made sure to never forget your name. You are blessed with a voice and talent to write amazing songs, even though they come from an awful place. I would give anything I had in this world to be able to do what I love, which is sing. Thank you for your songs, for you goodness, for your work with foster children. I pray that God will continue to bless you beyond what you can imagine.

  65. T.... B....

    Reminds me of my husband relationship with his biological dad. He passed away last March unfortunately before he got to know I'm carrying his first grandchild.

  66. A.... C....

    When did he die and how?

  67. L.... I....

    Good to know that I have a Heavenly Father who loves me so much. ❤️

  68. C.... M....

Thanks jimmy!

  87. B.... S....
