Top Of The World

I wished I was smarter

I wished I was stronger

I wished I loved Jesus

The way my wife does

I wish it had been easier

Instead of any longer

I wished I could have stood where you would have 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

Think I broke the wings off that little song bird

She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now

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 eveing

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

Think I broke the wings off that little song bird

She's never gonna fly to the top of the world right now

Top of the world

I wished I'd a known you

Wished I'd a shown you

All of the things I was on the inside

I'd pretend to be sleeping

When you come in in the morning

To whisper good-bye

Go to work in the rain

I don't know why

Don't know why

'Cause everone's singing

We just wanna be heard

Disappearing everyday without so much as a word somehow

Wanna grab a hold of that little song bird

Take her for a ride to the top of the world right now

To the top of the world

To the top of the world

To the top of the world

To the top of the world

To the top of the world

To the top of the world

To the top of the world

To the top of the world
