More To A Sinner

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
