She's More

She's More Lyrics

"She's More" was written by Hengber, Liz/crosby, Rob: See, Hoar, Rob Crosby. 

(Okay, this is a song, not technically a poem, but I am taking liberty (since it is my blog site) and posting it here. After a song is not much more than a poem put to lyrics. Many of the poems I have posted have been put to lyrics, but this one was apparently written with the goal for it to be a song. It was recorded by Andy Griggs and reached the top 5 in some charts in 2000. I only heard it once on the radio, researched it, and came to realize that every word fits my thoughts about my wife of over 46 years - Nita.)

I like blue eyes, hers are green
Not like the woman of my dreams
And her hair's not quite as long as I had planned

Five foot three isn't tall
She's not the girl I pictured at all
In those paint by number fantasies I've had

So it took me by complete surprise
When my heart got lost in those deep green eyes
She's not at all what I was looking for
She's more

No, it wasn't at first sight
But the moment I looked twice
I saw the woman I was born to love

Her laughter fills my soul
And when I hold her I don't wanna let go
When it comes to her I can't get enough

So it took me by complete surprise
When my heart got lost in those deep green eyes
She's not at all what I was looking for
She's more

More than I dreamed of
More than any man deserves
I couldn't ask for more
Than a love like hers

So it took me by complete surprise
When my heart got lost in those deep green eyes
She's not at all what I was looking for
She's more
