What Do You Love More Than Love

Dar Williams

Well the mountain was so beautiful

That this guy built a mall and a pizza shack

Yeah, he built an ugly city because

He wanted the mountain to love him back



Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love

When you know that you won't get your heart in that stone

When you drop your tools and you stand alone

Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love



Well, when my love felt like another addiction

I held my breath and I packed my bags

And I went to the land of the monastery

And the sunshine children and the prayer flags



Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love

When you feel your soul go beyond your skin

When you know that's the way that it's always been

Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love



Well, I climbed a mountain and I thought about attachment

And I thought about the Buddhist King

He said, "You can keep your superpower

It just short circuits my country"



Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love

When you question what your desire is for

When you don't just figure that you just want more

Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love



Well, I love the way the world is your garden

And you plant your seeds and you let them grow

And you take things out of the ground just like

You take what comes, but you never know



Yeah, and the mountain is so beautiful

And we don't know if we're any good at all

And we give our love when we think we still need it

Yeah we give and give and fall and fall



Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more than love

When the giving is all that you ever get back

Oh, how long do you love like that

Can you tell me oh, how to love

Hey, what do you love more than love

Hey, what do you love more tha
