I wished I was smarter I Wished I was stronger 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 That won't happen now That won't happen now
There's a whole lot of singing That's never gonna be heard Disppearing 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 Right now Top of the world
I don't have to answer Any of these questions Don't have no guide 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
I wished I'd had known you Wished I had shown you All of the things I Was on the endside 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 Wanna grab a hold Of little songbird And take her for a ride To the top of the world Right now
Woh,woh,to the top of the world……
