Bigger Than Love

[Chorus: Aimee Mann]

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

It's dwarfing the sun

And burning within my heart and mind

[Verse 1: Aimee Mann]

I live with my memories

The bustle and fervor of New York

We're on 59th Street

We quarreled and broke the bathroom door

'Cause you were just drinking

Drinking 'til you could hardly see

Oh, how much I loved you

But I couldn't bring myself to leave

[Chorus: Benjamin Gibbard]

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

Dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind

[Verse 2: Benjamin Gibbard]

Our summers in Paris

The Seine overflowing with champagne

And I knew you stepped out

But you knew that I had done the same

We had a child there

But we couldn't raise her on our own

So our house got crowded

I never felt so all alone

[Chorus: Aimee Mann & Benjamin Gibbard]

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

Dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

Dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind

[Verse 3: Aimee Mann, Benjamin Gibbard]

Stranded in Asheville

Failing to fix a broken head

You're in California

Doing the work of lesser men

Oh, what of our daughter?

Oh, what of the love that we once shared?

It's living inside us

Battered, but not beyond repair

[Bridge: Benjamin Gibbard]

Our fate decreed

A singularity

A solemn tune

I play at night and danced around the room

[Chorus:  Aimee Mann, Benjamin Gibbard, both]

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

Dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

It's dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

It's dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind

It's bigger than love

Brighter than all the stars combined

It's dwarfing the sun

Burning within my heart and mind
