Lyrics

The More Copyright 2004 Bill Douglass

A 100 different voices seem to speak their mind
From the world out there ? to another one inside
And this truth that I?ve been taught ? it is so logical and yet
To my heart it seems, to make no sense at all

Cuz I?ve been feeling something strong ? inside myself lately
Like a song droaning on that won?t quit playing
Just beating like a drum ? steady on and on and on
And I can?t help but hear a voice keep saying

If you follow me ? I?ll show you more and more
Every question that you face ? I will answer

Chorus:
And the more that I hear of you
The more that I know you?re true
And the more that I see what I cannot see with these eyes
The more that I know it?s up to me to just believe

The more that I follow you
The more that I?m finding me
That more that I know there is a hand that?s guiding me along
beyond the things that I?ve been told is all there is to know

The more that I hear?.

How do you explain a burning fire inside
A peaceful river flowing in the dessert of life
And how can I express to a world of emptiness
That there is something that can fill the void

And as I?m coming closer to this voice I hear
Every step I take I find that I?m losing every fear
[chorus]

Bridge:
And it?s more real than what I hear or see or feel
I wanna let go of my reasons and believe what is beating just beneath?
The more that I hear?.
