Be More Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh-ohh, oh

[Verse 1]
It must be more than I need you
More than I love you
Be more than wishes on stars
High above you

[Chorus]
If words could just hold you
Tell me you feel me
Oh, just to know you
Tell me you see me
I couldn't have said it
You must have just read it
In my eyes
Darling, please
Let it be more
Be more
Be more

[Verse 2]
It must be more than I want you
More than I caught you
Be more than dancing in raindrops
Falling to touch you
Oh, just to touch you

Oh-oh
[Chorus]
If words could just hold you
Tell me you feel me
Oh, just to know you
Tell me you see me, yeah
I couldn't have said it
You must have just read it
In my eyes
Let it be more
Be more
Be more
Darling, be more
Be more
Be more, ahh-ah-ah, ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh

[Outro]
If words could just hold you
Tell me you feel me
Oh, just to know you
Tell me you see me
I couldn't have said it
You must have just read it
In my eyes
Darling, please
Let it be more

“Be More” plays a part in Angel Face’s larger love story arc, between the characters of The Troubadour Sanchez and Evangeline in 1964.

In this song, The Troubadour Sanchez is heard desperately confessing his love for Evangeline. In each verse he begs the question: “What is more than ‘I love you?’ More than ‘I want you?’ More than ‘I need you?’” It is a self confession to her, saying: “I want to be more than all of this to you, and I want you to be more than all of this to me”.

What did Stephen Sanchez say about "Be More"?
Genius Answer

“Be More” is a dialogue between lovers (in this case, ‘The Troubadour Sanchez’ and Evangeline). ‘The Troubadour Sanchez’ is saying how much he wants Evangeline and [is] asking her to ‘Be More’. For instance, ‘Be More’ is far more than ‘I love you’ and ‘I need you’. Both sides are begging and proclaiming love. That’s the purpose of the song. It affirms your love is far more than you could ever understand, know, or hold within your hands by yourself.
