The impression that I get
I love this song, do you?


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
No?
Well,

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
No?
Well,

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

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

Never had to but I'd better knock on wood
'cause I know someone who has,
which makes me wonder if I could
It makes me wonder if I never had to,
but I'd better knock on wood
'Cause I'm sure it isn't good
and I'm glad I haven't yet
That's the impression that I get
