Top Of The World (Album Version)
I wished I was smarter
I wished I was stronger
I wished I loved Jesus
The way the my wife does
I wished 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 going to 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 going to 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 going to 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 going to 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'd pretend to be sleeping
When you'd 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 every day
Without so much as a word somehow
I want to 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
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
Top of the world
Top of the world
Top of the world
To the top of the world
I wished I was stronger
I wished I loved Jesus
The way the my wife does
I wished 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 going to 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 going to 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 going to 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 going to 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'd pretend to be sleeping
When you'd 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 every day
Without so much as a word somehow
I want to 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
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
Top of the world
Top of the world
Top of the world
To the top of the world
