Lyrics

More Than I Deserve

I can see the joy around your eyes, all the laughter that brought us to tears.
When we met we were just kids, chasing dreams and love like a pup with a toy

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh you’ve been so good to me, all this joy that we absorb
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh you’ve been so good to me, not a day that i deserve

Chase those lines they dance around our eyes, celebrate the light inside.
I remember the jealousy I’d hide in your presence just to touch your skin.
Just take me there again, my skin upon your skin.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh you’ve been so good to me, all this joy that we absorb
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh you’ve been so good to me, not a day that I deserve

Lost days we’d pioneer inside, while the children would play in the snow.
The winter’s cold but we would never know, wrapped in love & joy we’d dance in our warm bed.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh you’ve been so good to me, all this joy that we absorb
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh you’ve been so good to me, not a day that i deserve

Drink it up drink it up
Take it in take take it in
its not a sin! No, its not a sin!
drink it up! drink it up! take it in take! take it in!

Its not a sin, no, its not a sin. so
Drink it up, drink it up!
Take it in! take it in!
Its not a sin, no, its not a sin
This is more than I deserve.
