I Wish That Wasn't All

"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 Hearin' 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, and I remember thinkin', "man I wish, Lord, I wish that wasn't all" 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 wantin' more Like the way I felt that June when Dad called me with the news Through tears, he told me my grand dad was gone He lived til' he was ninety-five, I know that's a good long life Still I wish, Lord, I wish that wasn't all 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 wantin' more
