I'm stronger with her near me, than when I walk alone. A 'greater than the sum of my parts' kind of message.....

More Than What I Am
Timothy A. Perry © 1/04/2007

Intro (sung slowly):
Without you I’m a single voice. But with you I’m a choir.
You always make me more than what I am.

Verse 1:
I wonder how my life would be if differently we met.
If I had found the arms of someone else.
I wonder if I’d find a love to make my soul forget
The way you make me feel about myself.
I think back to the early days
And how there were so many ways
We could’ve ended up upon a shelf.

Chorus 1:
Without you I’m an ember. But with you I’m a fire.
You’re the one who makes me twice the man.
Without you I’m a single voice. But with you I’m a choir.
You always make me more than what I am. That what I am.

Verse 2:
When I was young I used to think there wasn’t any plan
‘Bout how my life was really s’posed to be.
Didn’t see a need for any compass as I ran
Cuz’ where I went was all the same to me.
Still the voice was cuttin’ like a knife,
Said, “lose your freedom, lose your life.”
I couldn’t know what I was meant to see…. (that)

Chorus 1:
Without you I’m an ember. But with you I’m a fire.
You’re the one who makes me twice the man.
Without you I’m a single voice. But with you I’m a choir.
You always make me more than what I am.

Chorus 2:
With you I’m a gemstone. But without you I’m a rock
You’re the one who makes me think I can.
Without you I’m a single bird. But with you I’m a flock.
You always make me more than what I am.

Bridge:
You’re the breeze that lifts the feather. The hill that rolls the stone
I’m stronger with you near me. Than when I walk alone…..

Chorus 1:
Without you I’m an ember. But with you I’m a fire.
You’re the one who makes me twice the man.
Without you I’m a single voice. But with you I’m a choir.
You always make me more than what I am.
Than what I am.
