I Didn't Think I Could Love You More

I fell pretty hard

When we got together

Out in the backyard

Birds of a feather

You said by my side

Forever wouldn’t seem that long

I didn’t think I could love you more

I was wrong

When we fell apart

A couple of years there

It caged up my heart

With all of my fears there

You said as we cried

Our tears there would make for a good country song

I didn’t think I could love you more

I was wrong

You came down the aisle

Eyes full of sea shine

You gave me that smile

And pledged that you would be mine until the day I died

The rabbi and the priest signed the license

A week we didn’t leave that room for long

Oh what a furlong

You took my name

For the ever keeping

The baby came

Now you’re never sleeping

I’ve known not joy or pride

As when my mother hears her sing that Beatles song

I didn’t think I could love you more

I was wrong

Out here in the dust

A hot wind is blowing

And I am amazed how love can keep growing
