More Than This

Cradling stones Hold fire bright As crickets call out To the moonlight And as you lean in To steal a kiss I'll never need more than this We all share the pain Of our histories But the ache goes away If you could see This night under stars Well I call it peace If you say ill never need more than this And the trees grow so thick You can barely see through And the forest bestows All the simplest of truths And you think you'll be happy If granted one more wish But the truth is You'll never need more You'll never need more You'll never need more than this. Want so much in this life There's so much to be We sail through our youth So impatiently Until we see That the years move along And soldiers and heroes come home And they carry a song don't Live in forgotten times May this always remind You of the sea under the skies You looking glass ? Lets make this our story Lets live in the glory Time it fades away precious as a song 'cause someday we'll be gone Cradling stones Hold fire bright. As we watch the glow Of the morning light Someday our bones here they will lie And so we sing As the years move along And soldiers and heroes come home And they carry a song Lets make this our story Lets live in the glory Time it fades away precious as a song 'Cause someday we'll be gone --- More Than This - Vanessa Carlton
