Top Of The World

I wished I was smarter
 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
 Disappearing every day without so much as a word somehow
 Think I broke the wings of 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 guide 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
 Think I broke the wings of 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
 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 goodbye
 Go to 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
 Gonna grab a hold of that little songbird
 Take her for a ride to the top of the world right now

 Top of the world
 To the top of the world

 To dream the impossible dream
 To write the unwritable wrong
 To bear the unbearable sorrow
 To ride where the brave did not go
 To right the unrightable wrong
 To love, you're enchased from afar
 To try though your arms are too weary
 To reach the unreachable star
 This is my quest
 To follow that star
 No matter how hopeless
 No matter how far
