~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ STRONGER THAN YOU THINK by rené marie
Broken wings let me hold you close and calm your furious beating Timid heart, please speak to me and tell the secrets that you hide Empty hands, open up and hold on to what's worth keeping Soul that's lost I've got some hope to take the place of all that pride
In your eyes I can see a strength that's deep and growing On your face is a story waiting to be told In your mind is the source of everything worth knowing And a spirit that will never grow old
CHORUS And the waves you're on are gonna rise and fall You got a lot to learn but you're never gonna know it all Don't hide them, be proud of your battle scars You're stronger than you think you are
Shame is an admission to ourselves of our potential Loneliness ain't nothin' but the stranger that's inside Emptiness just means we're not aware of our own credentials Battle scars mean that we've survived
Once you learn that happiness is not a competition Once you see that what you need was with you all along Once you know that courage is another word for intuition Then your fears will disappear and your heart will burst out in song
