Lyrics If I Had Wings - Darius Rucker

Why do we hate? Why do we suffer?
Why do we make our mistakes and constantly blame one another?
Why is there war and why is there killing?
Have we forgotten some secret we knew back when we were just children?

If I had wings, I'd fly up to heaven
I'd look down from the clouds on everything
Then I could find all the things we've been missin'
I would have all the answers if I had wings

Like why am I here and where did I come from?
And where will I go when my time here on this earth is done
And what will I leave that will go one forever, oh no
And what can I do while I'm here to make someone's life better

If I had wings, I'd fly up to heaven
I'd look down from the clouds on everything
Then I could find all the things we've been missin'
I would have all the answers if I had wings

Oh, now, if I had wings, I would fly up to heaven
I would have all the answers if I had wings
