Deeper Than the Holler - Live

I've heard those city singers singin' 'bout how they can love

Deeper than the ocean, higher than the stars above

But I come from the country and I know I ain't seen it all

But I heard that ocean's salty and the stars they sometimes fall

That would not do justice to the way I feel for you

So I had to sing a song about all the things I knew

Our love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the river

Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill

My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December

And honest as a robin on a springtime windowsill

And longer than the song of a whippoorwill

From the backroads to the Broadway shows with a million miles between

There's at least a million love songs that people love to sing

And every one is different and every one's the same

And this is just another way of sayin' the same thing

Our love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the river

Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill

My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December

And honest as a robin on a springtime windowsill

And longer than the song of a whippoorwill

Our love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the river

Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill

My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December

And honest as a robin on a springtime windowsill

And longer than the song of a whippoorwill

A whippoorwill
