I wished I was stronger
I wished I was smarter
I wished I loved Jesus,
The way 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,
That won't happen now.

There's a whole lot of singing
That's never gonna be heard
Disappearing everyday without so much as a word
Somehow...
And 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 come home in the evening
And 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 everyday without so much as a word
Somehow...
And 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 wish I'd have known you
I wish I'd have shown you
All of the things I
Was on the inside
But I pretend to be sleeping
When you come in in the morning
To whisper goodbye
And 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 everyday without so much as a word
Somehow
And I wanna grab a hold
Of that little songbird
Take her on a ride
To the top of the world right now.
To the top of the world.
