Stronger

Here we go out by the river's edge

Here we go out where the road does bend

And I think I hear the past howl again

Maybe we out grew the love

It just don't seem to fit no more

Like that shirt you bought me

I never took to wore

Now I'm wondering just who you bought it for

CHORUS

And I always thought I would be

A stronger girl than the one

That lives in me

Now it's me and my discontent

Waiting on the words you say

Always wanting evidence

Of any love that's tossed my way

And I'm wondering what is this need

To be loved anyway

So what's a woman's worth now

Is she measured by the face and hands

Sizing up the body standards in the eyes of man

And what gives you the right to think you can

CHORUS

let anybody hurt you now

You'll never be afraid to cry

The question still remaining is where

Does our strength lie

Under layers of this world

And wonderin' why

And I always thought I'd be

In a different world this the one I see

And I always thought I would be a stronger girl
