Top Of The World

I wished i was smarter

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

That won't happen now

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

And 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 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 a little songbird

And she's never gonna fly

To the top of the world

Now

To the top of the world

I wished i'd had known you

Wished i had shown you

All of the things i

Was on the side

But i'd pretend to be sleeping

When you'd come in in the morning

To whisper goodbye

Go work in the rain

I don't know why

Don't know why

Cause everyone's singing

We just wanna be heard

Disappearing every day

Without so much as a word

Somehow?

Gonna grab a hold

Of that little songbird

And take her for a ride

To the top of the world

Right now

To the top of the world
