Top of the World歌词

I wished I was smarter
I 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
But 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
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'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 gonna 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 gonna fly
To the top of the world
Now
To the top of the world
I wished I'd have known you
I wished 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 good-bye
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 wanna 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
