[Lyric] Larger Than Life (Layton Howerton)

As a boy I use to climb up
On my daddy's knee
He had big bear paws
And shoes size 13 EEE
And he seemed to me
To be larger than life

He had a heart bigger
Than any house on our avenue
A voice and a smile to match it, too
And when he called for you
He sounded larger than life

Kids grow up, they figure out
They learn what life's about
That not all things are actual size
Like the picture on a cereal box
Of a toy surprise
Some things are larger than life

Now I use to run off
To the fishin' hole
With my brother
Cousin and cane pole
Where every fish we caught
Was larger than life
Now my brother fixes people
My cousin fixes cars
And those days gone
By seem so distant and far
Like the battles we fought
That were larger than life

Kids grow up, they figure out
They learn what life's about
That not all things are actual size
Big trouble comes in little white lies
Some things get larger than life

I was seven years old
The day I walked the aisle
And I saw my mama's tears
And my daddy's smile
And that moment
Seemed larger than life

`Cause there were angels
Rejoicing all around
Over the good news
And great joy I had found
In a little manger boy
Who was larger than life
Kids grow up, they figure out
They learn what life's about
That not all things are actual size
There's more than just what meets the eyes
Some things are larger than life
