[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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?

And why can't You stop a car from crashing?

Forgive me, I'm just asking

[Verse 2]

I bet, somewhere, there's a yearbook

In a box under a bed

With a senior picture missing

"In Loving Memory" instead

And somewhere there's a mother

Who stopped going to church

'Cause Your plan quit making sense down here on Earth

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

Oh, I'm just saying

You don't have to answer now

Oh, but someday

[Chorus]

If I ever get to Heaven

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?

If You got Your hands on everything that happens

Then why couldn't You stop that car from crashing?

Forgive me, I'm just asking

I'm just asking
