The theme of adultery looms large on this album, containing "cheatin' songs" like "Home Away from Home," "Woman, Woman (Get Out of My Way)" (co-written by his sister Linda Gail Lewis) and the Jerry Chesnut-penned title track, which had soared to the top of the country charts in 1970.
Another stand out cut is Lewis's rendition of Charlie Rich's "Life's Little Ups and Downs," a song that celebrates marriage and forgiveness, an ironic choice since Jerry Lee's marriage to his wife Myra was crumbling.
Lewis remains especially fond of "Sweet Georgia Brown" – specifically guitarist Kenny Lovelace's fiddle break in the song, enthusing to biographer Rick Bragg in 2014, "He did that fiddle break on that thing – it's somethin' else, isn't it?
There Must Be More to Love Than This was another hit album for Lewis, peaking at number 8 on the Billboard country charts.
In 2009, Lewis biographer Joe Bonomo calls "One More Time" a "beautifully sung song in its balance of egoism and compromise, and Ned Davis' steel guitar mourns the valid regret at its center."
