What Do You Love More Than Love
[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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?
[Verse 3]
Well, I climbed a mountain and I thought about attachment
I thought about the Buddhist King
He said, "You can keep your superpower
It just short circuits my country"

[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 4]
Well, I love the way the world is your garden
You plant your seeds and you let 'em grow
And you take things out of the ground just like
You'll take what comes, but you never know

[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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-ow 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 than love?
