I Love You More
©Kevin Fisher

I love you more than thunder loves lightning
More than April love rain
More than Sunday morning choirs
Love a heavenly refrain
More than branches of the Willow
Love to flutter in the breeze
And the snows of Kilimanjaro
Would love to melt into the seas, I love you more
I love you more than faithful Romeo
Loved his star-crossed Juliet
Or James Dean and Humphrey Bogart
Loved to hold that cigarette
More than old men and lonely soldiers
Love to spend the day
Telling stories of their battles
Or the girls that got away, I love you more

I'd become a priest for you
I'd become a thief for you
I'd walk a million miles
To offer some relief to you
And just when I think I've felt it all
Fallen hard as love can fall
And searched my very soul down to its core
I love you more

I love you more than Solomon loved wisdom
More than Pharaoh loved the Nile
Or the brushes of DiVinci
Loved the Mona Lisa's smile
More than statues in the temple
Or angels stuck in glass
Would love to break the ties that bind them
And fly away at last, I love you more

I'd become a priest for you
I'd become a thief for you
I'd walk a million miles
To offer some relief to you
And just when I think I've felt it all
Fallen hard as love can fall
And searched my very soul down to its core
I love you more

Every letter of every word
Of every phrase I've ever heard
And every clever metaphor is not enough
I love you more

I'd become a priest for you
I'd become a thief for you
I'd walk a million miles
To offer some relief to you
And just when I think I've felt it all
Fallen hard as love can fall
And searched my very soul down to its core
I love you more
