More To This Life Lyrics - Clay Aiken

Today I watched in silence as people passed me by 

And I strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes 

But they all looked at me as if to say 

'Life just goes on' 

The old familiar story told in different ways 

Make the most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave 

Dream your dreams tomorrow because today 

Life must go on 

But theres more to this life than living and dying 

More than just trying to make it through the day 

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see 

And theres more than this life alone can be 

He takes care of his family, he takes care of his work 

And every Sunday morning he takes his place at the church 

And somehow he still feels a need to search 

But life just goes on 

Tonight he lies in silence staring into space 

And looks for ways to make tomorrow better than today 

But in the morning light it looks the same 

Life just goes on 

But theres more to this life than living and dying 

More than just trying to make it through the day 

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see 

And theres more than this life alone can be 

So where do we start to find every part of what makes this life complete 

If we turn our eyes to Jesus well find 

Lifes true beginning is there at the cross where He died 

He died to bring us 

But theres more to this life than living and dying 

More than just trying to make it through the day 

More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see 

And theres more than this life alone can be
