|
I wished I was smarter |
|
I wished I was stronger |
|
I wished I loved Jesus |
|
The way the my wife does |
|
I wished it'd been easier |
|
Instead of any longer |
|
I wished I could've stood |
|
Where you would've been proud |
|
But that won't happen now |
|
There's a whole lot of singing |
|
That's never gonna be heard |
|
Disappearing every day |
|
Without so much as a word |
|
Somehow |
|
I think I broke the wings |
|
Off that little songbird |
|
She's never gonna fly |
|
To the top of the world |
|
Now |
|
To the top of the world |
|
I don't have to answer |
|
Any of these questions |
|
Don't have no God to |
|
Teach me no lessons |
|
I'd come home in the evening |
|
Sit in my chair |
|
One night they called me for supper |
|
But I never got up |
|
I stayed right there |
|
In my chair |
|
There's a whole lot of singing |
|
That's never gonna be heard |
|
Disappearing every day |
|
Without so much as a word |
|
Somehow |
|
I think I broke the wings |
|
Off that little songbird |
|
She's never gonna fly |
|
To the top of the world |
|
Now |
|
To the top of the world |
|
I wished I'd have known you |
|
I wished I'd have shown you |
|
All of the things |
|
I was on the inside |
|
But I'd pretend to be sleeping |
|
When you'd come in in the morning |
|
To whisper good-bye |
|
Go to work in the rain |
|
Now I don't know why |
|
I don't know why |
|
'Cause everyone's singing |
|
We just want to be heard |
|
Disappearing every day |
|
Without so much as a word |
|
Somehow |
|
I wanna grab a hold |
|
Of that little songbird |
|
Take her for a ride |
|
To the top of the world |
|
Right now |
|
To the top of the world |
