Vanessa Carlton - 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 dont...

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

cuz 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

cuz someday we ll be gone.
