Текст песни Jersey on the Wall - I'm Just Asking [Live from the Bluebird Café] - Tenille Townes

There's a jersey on the wall in a
High school gym in my hometown
In the corner by the scoreboard
Where the bleacher seats fold down
27 took the Tigers to the finals that year
But that's not why it's hanging there

If I ever get to heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
Like how do you make a snowflake?
Are you angry when the earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do you keep this big rock spinning?
Why can't you stop a car from crashing?
Forgive me—I'm just asking

I bet somewhere there's a yearbook
In a box under a bed
With a senior picture missing
And loving memory instead
And somewhere there's a mother
Who has stopped going to church
Because your plan quit making sense down here on earth

If I ever get to heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
Like how do you make a snowflake?
Are you angry when the earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do you keep this big rock spinning?
Why couldn't you stop that car from crashing?
Forgive me—I'm just asking

Oh I'm just saying
You don't have to answer now
Oh but someday

If I ever get to heaven
Got a long list of questions
Like how do you do you make a snowflake?
Are you angry with the earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do you keep this big rock spinning?
If you got the hands on everything that happens,
Then why couldn't you stop that car from crashing?
Forgive me—I'm just asking
Oh I'm just asking
