Less Is More

Rupert Holmes


The more I learn, the less I know
The more I earn, the more I owe
The more I search for somethin' new
The more I come right back to you

I'll always need your love I guess
I've looked for more but more is less
You take me in, you take me slow
You let me be, you let me know

That less is more, less is more
Hold me tight and everything is right
Just like before
Oh, take it easy

Love is more, love is more
Love is more than all the empty dreams
Outside your door
Make it easy

The more you buy, the less you've sold
The more you try, the more you fold
The more you read, the less you see
The more you need, the less you're free

Do what you do, you do it best
Don't run the race with all the rest
You set the pace so easily
With all the moves you make on me

Less is more, less is more
Hold me tight and everything is right
Just like before
Oh, take it easy

Love is more, love is more
Love is more than all the empty dreams
Outside your door
Make it easy

And more and more I must confess
I find I'm needing less and less
Why take the climb, why take the fall?
When more is here and less is all

Love is here, love is there
Love is found with both feet on the ground
That you share
Take it easy

Less is more, less is more
Less is more than everything combined
That's gone before
Make it easy
