"More Than That" lyrics

Barely through the door, you come running down the hall
Two years old, covered head to toe, in mud and dirt and smiles
You jump into my arms, my shirt still has the stain
It won't always be like this, so I really can't complain

The good, the bad, the best of days
The magic and the mess you make
It doesn't matter anyway
I couldn't love you more, I couldn't love you more

Higher than the highest airplanes fly
Farther than the hills behind the house you climb
Faster than a racecar could ever drive
Brighter than the stars in the backyard sky
Dream the biggest dreams you've ever had
And know your father loves you even more than that

I wish the world would stop, and you'd always stay this age
Running, playing, having fun, I'd never turn the page
There's more than scrapes in life, It's hard, the growing up
Don't ever let them make you think you're anything but loved

We can't repeat this day again
So I will breathe this moment in

Higher than the highest airplanes fly
Farther than the hills behind the house you climb
Faster than a racecar could ever drive
Brighter than the stars in the backyard sky
Dream the biggest dreams you've ever had
And know your father loves you even more than that
More than that
Even more than that
More than that

On the day that you were born, the world could clearly see
How, right away, my love for you was pure and wide and deep
As I held you in my arms, oh, I could not believe
"God gave us His only son, cause He somehow loves you even more than me."

Higher than the highest airplanes fly
Farther than the hills behind the house you climb
Faster than a racecar could ever drive
Brighter than the stars in the backyard sky
Dream the biggest dreams you've ever had
And know your father loves you even more than that
More than that
Even more than that
More than that
Even more than that
