Well I've heard those city singers
Singing 'bout how they can love
Deeper than the oceans
Higher than the stars above
Well I come from the country
And I know I ain't seen it all
But I heard that ocean's salty
And the stars they sometimes fall
And that would not do justice
To the way I feel for you
So I had to sing a song
About all the things I knew
My love is deeper than the holler
Stronger than the river
Higher than the pine trees
Growing tall upon the hill
My love is purer than the snowflakes
That fall in late december
And honest as a robin
On a spring time window sill
And longer than the song of a whipperwill
From the backroads to the broadway shows
With a million miles between
Theres at least a million lovesongs
That people love to sing
And everyone's different
And everyone's the same
And this is just another way of saying the same thing
My love is deeper than the holler
Stronger than the river
Higher than the pine trees
Growin tall upon the hill
My love is purer than the snowflakes
That fall in late december
And honest as a robin
On a spring time window sill
And longer than the song of a whipperwill
