There's a friend who will call
|
When her husband's asleep
|
Crossing the phone lines for comfort
|
And she cries that she needs him and
|
Someday he'll change
|
And now's not a good time to go
|
And it isn't my place to say leave him and run
|
That no love is worth all the damage he's done
|
But if she'll hold her ground
|
Then I'll hold my tongue
|
Ever the diplomat
|
Oh, I'd like to think
|
That I would be stronger than that
|
|
Where's her head
|
Where's her nerve
|
Does part of her think this is all she deserves
|
Oh, I would be stronger
|
I would not stay one minute longer
|
I would be stronger than that
|
|
It started out good they usually do
|
Then one day it's taken for granted
|
'Til words become weapons and love turns to pain
|
Oh, why is she still holding on
|
She says living without him is too hard to face
|
And I try to imagine myself in her place
|
But with well chosen words and well placed tears
|
She forgives him in two seconds flat
|
Oh, I'd like to think
|
That I would be stronger than that
|
|
Where's her head
|
Where's her nerve
|
Does part of her think this is all she deserves
|
Oh, I would be stronger
|
I would not stay one minute longer
|
I would be stronger than that
|
|
I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say
|
That my life and her life are like night and like day
|
And her love is the love that will save him
|
Brave words but I don't believe them
|
|
Where's her head
|
Where's her nerve
|
Does part of her think this is all she deserves
|
Oh, I would be stronger
|
I would not stay one minute longer
|
I would be stronger than that
|
|
Oh, I would be stronger
|
I would not wait one minute longer
|
I would be stronger than that
|
|

I Would Be Stronger Than That
