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 I think I broke the wings

Off that little songbird

She's never gonna fly

To the top of the world, now

To 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 had known you

Wished I had shown you

All of the things I

Was on the end side 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

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 *** 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
