Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill
And longer than the song of a whippoorwill
My love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the river
And everyone is different and everyone's the same
Well I come from the country and I know I ain't seen it all
And longer than the song of a whippoorwill
And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill
My love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the river
So I have to sing a song about all the things I knew
Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill
And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill
And longer than the song of a whippoorwill
But I heard that ocean's salty and the stars they sometimes fall
And that would not do justice to the way I feel for you

There's a least a million love songs that people love to sing
And honest as a robin on a springtime window sill
My love is deeper than the holler, stronger than the river
An' this is just another way of sayin' the same thing
A whippoorwill
My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December
Higher than the pine trees growin' tall upon the hill
From the backroads to the Broadway shows with a million miles between
My love is purer than the snowflakes that fall in late December

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