I Wish That Wasn't All

Joe Nichols

Written By: Chris DuBois and Ashley Gorley Intro: Verse One: "I'm No Stranger to the Rain" came on my radio today I hadn't heard that voice in way too long I've still got those worn out tapes, the only three or four he made What a shame, I wish that wasn't all Verse Two: Hearing that song took me back to my senior year, the year I asked Mary Ellen Mayfield to the prom She agreed to go as friends, I remember thinking "man, I wish, Lord I wish that wasn't all" Chorus One: Ain't it funny how sometimes, we can be unsatisfied With things we should be thankful for Like an old Keith Whitley song or a slow dance at the senior prom Some things just leave you wanting more Verse Three: Like the way I felt that June, when Dad called me with the news Through tears he told me my granddad was gone He lived 'til he was 95, I know that's a good long life still I wish, Lord I wish that wasn't all Chorus Two: Ain't it funny how sometimes, we can be unsatisfied With things we should be thankful for Like the time we get to spend with the ones we love, family and friends Some things just leave you wanting more Verse Four: I thank God that I found you, until now I never knew That a love could be this strong I could stay right here and hold you close for ten forevers in a row, still I'd wish I'd wish that wasn't all Yeah I wish, Lord, I wish that wasn't all
