cornerstone – top of the world lyrics
(patty griffin)
i wished i was smarter
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
that won’t happen now
that won’t happen now
there’s a whole lot of singing
that ain’t gonna be heard
disappearing every day
without so much as a word
somehow
i think i broke the wings
off a little songbird
and she’s never gonna fly
to the top of the world
how
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 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 ain’t gonna be heard
disappearing every day
without so much as a word
somehow
i think i broke the wings
off a little songbird
and she’s never gonna fly
to the top of the world
how
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 inside
but i’d pretend to be sleeping
when you’d come in in the morning
to whisper goodbye
go work at 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
so how?
gonna grab a hold
of that little songbird
and take her for a ride
to the top of the world
right now
to the top of the world
