Michael McDonald - More To Us Than That lyrics

(Michael McDonald)

You say sometimes you feel like searchin'

For what you think you need

If you go searchin' for life's reward

You'll wind up sailin' the seven seas

'cause here and now when lightning strikes

And it drives us to our knees

Only then do we realize

What we don't always see

That even now in our darkesr hour

We've got the whole universe in our hands

Of all the choices we could make

If we do the lovin' thing

Someday when we look back on this

I doubt if we'll remember much

About the times we hurt each other

The reasons we forgot to trust

There's more to us than that

Sometimes I may try to be

Though I know I'm not your answer

But I'm not your problem either baby

In that way we're all the same

And I know if I surrender

It's a lesson we must learn

A simple truth we can understand

Someday when we look back on this

Far enough away to see

That the most we could ask of this life

The best that we can hope to be

Is to be grateful for love so clear

Like a mirror reflects your face

If you search for the tracks of your tears

I know you won't find a trace

There's more to us than that

Every single tear

Every shattered dream

They're just like pieces of a puzzle

Of themselves not what they seem

Even in our darkest hour

I doubt if we'll remember much

About the times we hurt each other

The reasons we forgot to trust
