More mouths to feed, more dirty shorts
More books to read, more pillow forts
More stockings crammed upon the mantle hooks

More tears to dry, more movie nights
More fears to hide, more tangled kites
So much to learn that they don't teach in books

Cards down, the bets are in
A full house, for the win
The more of us, the stronger we will be

And each time, it's scarier
But the more love, the merrier
Another branch upon the family tree

From sports cars to minivans
From date nights to dental plans
From flying high to building up the nest

From foie gras to mac and cheese
From crosswords to ABCs
The new life for you and me's the best

[Chorus]
