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
Chours:
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
Chours:
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 cowards,
I'm afraid of what I might find out
Chours:
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
