Bigger Than Anything

It must be real, this love of mine
I’m proud and happy when I see my wife
Butchering some oysters in the French atlantic
With a smile, a bikini and a knive
So small, so big, one quick kiss
And everything falls in place
The agony gathered in moments of weakness
Disappears with one glimpse of her face
Love is sometimes less than a splinter in a sliver of life
But in the words of songs that so many sing
Love is bigger than anything, bigger than anything
The love of your life can be the needle in a haystack
And once you think you found her she can sting
She can haunt you like lipstick on a mirror
One quick shower and back comes everything
What makes your love so true, so true
Maybe truth is a better word
And history proved that truth is always changing
The wisest thing I’ve ever heard
Love is sometimes less than a splinter in a sliver of life
But in the words of songs that so many sing
Love is bigger than anything, bigger than anything
So strange to know that love is ‘round the corner
Even when there’s no such thing as hope
And like a crazy loon, without thinking
You jump into the pit without a rope
A thousand cupids harpooned your guts
And it cuts you to the bone
No matter if she stays or not
She’ll never leave you alone
Love is sometimes less than a splinter in a sliver of life
But in the words of songs that so many sing
Love is bigger than anything, bigger than anything
