Have you ever been close to tragedy |
|
Or been close to folks who have |
|
Have you ever felt a pain so powerful |
|
So heavy, you collapse? |
|
I've never had to knock on wood |
|
But I know someone who has |
|
Which makes me wonder if I could |
|
It makes me wonder if |
|
I've never had to knock on wood |
|
And I'm glad I haven't yet |
|
Because I'm sure it isn't good |
|
That's the impression that I get |
|
Have you ever had the odds stacked up so high |
|
You need a strength most don't possess |
|
Or has it ever come down to do or die |
|
You've got to rise above the rest? |
|
I've never had to knock on wood |
|
But I know someone who has |
|
Which makes me wonder if I could |
|
It makes me wonder if |
|
I've never had to knock on wood |
|
And I'm glad I haven't yet |
|
Because I'm sure it isn't good |
|
That's the impression that I get |
|
I'm not a coward, I've just never been tested |
|
I'd like to think that if I was, I would pass |
|
Look at the tested and think there but for the grace go |
|
I might be a coward, I'm afraid of what I might find out |
|
I've never had to knock on wood |
|
But I know someone who has |
|
Which makes me wonder if I could |
|
It makes me wonder if |
|
I've never had to knock on wood |
|
And I'm glad I haven't yet |
|
Because I'm sure it isn't good |
|
That's the impression that I get |
