Lyrics
More Back in nineteen eighty one My boy came up to me Holdin’ to an envelope He wanted me to see It was on a Mother’s Day He’d made up his own card Readin’ it I held back tears But it was very hard It said “I love you more” “More than cotton candy------------- Chorus More than my marbles too More than sleddin’ in the snow More even than ole blue More than choc'late ice cream More than my best friend Joe More than ridin’ my new bike More than anything I know” Twenty years have passed and more To the birthing of his son I waited until Fathers Day Then I gave him back this one Plus another I had made Just waitin’ for this time It had taken years to write What I had on my mind It said “I love you more” “More than nights out on the town Or getting’ any sleep More than fortune, more than fame Or knick-knacks that I keep More than berry ice cream More than a life my own More than anything on earth I hope my love has shown He couldn’t read it for the tears----------- Bridge Flowing from his eyes He said, “Mom you loved me more Than I ever realized” Turnaround 8 bars "And I still love you more More than cotton candy More than my marbles too More than sleddin’ in the snow More even than ole blue More than choc'late ice cream More than my best friend Joe More than ridin’ my new bike More than anything I know” “Now with a son to hold on to I know I’ll love him more” Copyright 2022 John W.
