Timothy James Bowen - Sing
текст песни

When I was young I chased my sister like a shadow
She had eyes on everything
Just like that time I lost a fight to Clancy Jenkins
cnd she showed me how to win

We'd go rambling through rivers and tree tops
Spinning stories of our home
cnd in the evening we'd be singing by the fire side
Of all the places we would go

If I'd have known back then where I'd be right now
I'd have grown much less than I'd need
cnd I don't know where I'd be standing right now
No, I don't know where I'd be
If I didn't learn to sing
If I didn't learn to sing

I've always dreamed of driving trains just like my Grandad
Something 'bout the smell of iron and coal
But to hear him sing to Nanna dancing in the kitchen,
Well that stirred something in my soul

From the mother church to picking up a guitar
I've taken chances on the word
cnd here I'll stay forever singing from the roof tops
Of adventures yet to have and to hold

If I'd have known back then where I'd be right now
I'd have grown much less than I'd need
cnd I don't know where I'd be standing right now
No, I don't know where I'd be
If I didn't learn to

Sing until my throat runs dry
Till my lungs are tired and old
Nothin' else can satisfy my soul

When I'm old and all my narratives are grown
I'll be happy as a bird
For when they ask me what it takes to tell a story
Well you only need the truth and three chords

If I'd have known back then where I'd be right now
I'd have grown much less than I'd need
cnd I don't know where I'd be standing right now
No I don't know where I'd be
If I didn't learn to sing
If I didn't learn to sing
If I didn't learn to sing
If I didn't learn to sing
