Or been close to folks who have?

Have you ever felt a pain so powerful

So heavy you collapse?

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?

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 coward, I'm afraid of what I might find out

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
