To Tell You The Truth, I Lied Lyrics

The Impossible

We have taken the extremely unusual step of publishing this song without being able to fill writers and publishers details.
We will rectify this as soon as we can.
Single release, ? 2002, Universal South Records, Nashville.

My dad chased monsters from the dark,
He checked underneath my bed.
An' he could lift me with one arm,
Way up over top his head.
He could loosen rusty bolts,
With a quick turn of his wrist.
He pulled splinters from his hand,
And never even flinched.
In thirteen years I'd never seen him cry,
But the day that grandpa died, I realized:
Unsinkable ships sink.
Unbreakable walls break.
Sometimes the things you think could never happen,
Happen just like that.
Unbendable steel bends.
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable,
I've learned to never underestimate,
The impossible.

An' then there was my junior year,
Nearly had a brand new car.
It was late, the road was wet,
I guess the curve was just too sharp.Joe Nichols - To Tell You The Truth, I Lied - http://motolyrics.com/joe-nichols/to-tell-you-the-truth-i-lied-lyrics.html
I walked away without a scratch.
They brought the helicopter in.
An' Billy couldn't feel his legs.
Said he'd never walk again.
But Billy said he would and his Mom and daddy prayed,
And the day we graduated, he stood up to say:

"Unsinkable ships sink.
"Unbreakable walls break.
"Sometimes the things you think could never happen,
"Happen just like that.
"Unbendable steel bends.
"If the fury of the wind is unstoppable,
"I've learned to never underestimate,
"The impossible."

So don't tell me that it's over.
Don't give up on you and me.
'Cos there's no such thing as hopeless,
If you believe:

Unsinkable ships sink.
Unbreakable walls break.
Sometimes the things you think could never happen,
Happen just like that.
Unbendable steel bends.
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable,
I've learned to never underestimate,
The impossible.
