More Than Life Itself

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fourteen years old, I gave my heart away To a boy of seventeen who promised he would stay We didn't have much money, but we had something more A love that kept on knocking, every closing door Through every storm that came, we found a way [Chorus] Through the fire, through the rain Through the joy and through the pain You're my shelter, you're my home The only love I've ever known Side by side, hand in hand Together we will always stand [Verse 2] We lost five little angels, held them in our prayers You worked your hands to bone, my love, just to show you cared You laid down what was holding you, became the man inside The one I always saw in you, my strength, my joy, my pride And Brian, you're the reason I still believe [Chorus] Through the fire, through the rain Through the joy and through the pain You're my shelter, you're my home The only love I've ever known Side by side, hand in hand Together we will always stand [Bridge] Six months apart taught me what forever means You came back to me, Brian, like a country dream [Verse 3] From '92 to all our years, you've been my truest friend The courage in your quiet way, the love that doesn't bend I love you more than life itself, more than words can say Whatever tomorrow's bringing, we will find our way Brian, you're my always, you're my everything [Chorus] Through the fire, through the rain Through the joy and through the pain You're my shelter, you're my home The only love I've ever known Side by side, hand in hand Together we will always stand [Outro] Nothing's gonna stop this love we've made You and me forever, come what may
