More Than lyrics
by Jaye Thomas
[Verse 1]
There are a thousand songs of the same refrain
None of them stand with me in the darkest night
Singing of the times I gave myself away
My love cast off to an idol's fame
[Chorus]
So, I've been running myself into the ground
To put You together, to figure You out
But Your heart is like poetry, more like a song to sing
And I've been out-of-key and off-beat all along
[Verse 2]
There are a thousand reasons You should give up
Namely, to grow weary of how often I run
From this dance of You showing me how to love
By Your gentleness, all my defense is undone
There are a thousand angels who know my name
For all the times You've called them to the lines for me
Proving You are stronger than relentless shame
Your words dripping grace, I know I'm finally safe
[Chorus]
So, I've been running myself into the ground
To put You together, to figure You out
But Your heart is like poetry, more like a song to sing
And I've been out-of-key and off-beat all along
So, I've been running myself into the ground
To put You together, to figure You out
But Your heart is like poetry, more like a song to sing
And I've been out-of-key and off-beat all along
[Bridge]
My eyes, they are beginning to find
Your words have no laces or traces of lies
And every action in Your pursuit of me
Is forged in the furnace of a holy jealousy
[Verse 3]
There are a thousand other loves who've known my touch
I know better than all the debt of their cost
I left them all when You raised my dirty eyes from the dust
There have been a thousand, but You are more than all
