i woke up and the world outside was dark
all so quiet before the dawn
opened up the door and walked outside
the ground was cold
i walked until i couldn't walk any more
to a place i'd never been
there was something stirring in the air
in front of me, i could see
more than this
more than this
so much more than this
there is something else there
when all that you had has all gone
and more than this
i stand
feeling so connected
and i'm all there
right next to you
it started when i saw the ship go down
i saw them struggle in the sea
and suddenly the picture disappears
in front of me
now we're busy making all our busy plans
on foundations built to last
but nothing fades as fast as the future
and nothing clings like the past, until we can see
more than this
more than this
so much more than this
there is something out there
more than this
it's coming through
and more than this
i stand alone and so connected
and i'm all there
right next to you
oh then it's alright
when with every day another bit falls away
oh but its still alright, alright, alright
and like words together we can make some sense
much more than this
way beyond imagination
much more than this
beyond the stars
with my head so full
so full of fractured pictures
and i'm all there
right next to you
so much more than this
there is something else there
when all that you had has all gone
and more than this
i'm alone
feeling so connected
and i'm all there right next to you
more than this
more than this
more than this
more than this

Review about More Than This There is no need for "MORE THAN THIS" | Reviewer: lynford | 9/29/09
This song says it all for many of us. Whether in love or in life, we ask ourselves "is there MORE THAN THIS?" and so far no one has been able to truthfully say there is-so the other lyrics of the song hold true as well. Roxy Music (and in particular Brian Ferry) does the original and, for me, the "etherial" version but it is a classic that can and has been done by any other artist who really feels the words. What "MORE THAN THIS" is needed-nothing!
