There's more to a river than water
There's more to a fire than flame
There's more to a prayer than longing
There's more to a sinner than shame

Laying low and wasting time
In these days of wine and regret
There's a message in every bottle
That's telling me to forget

Ooh, that there's more
Yes there's more

(There's more to a river than water
More to a fire than flame
More to a prayer than longing
More to a sinner than shame
More to an ocean than mighty
More to a lover than blame
More to a beggar than wanting
More to a sinner than shame)

Sleeping late and falling behind
So much for going straighter
But there are things left to remind me
That I was going to do better

Ooh, 'cause there's more
Yes there's more
