The Strongest One
V1: Red hair,
Tears running
Down your pretty face.
They tell you that you’re different,
Nothing to love…just to hate.
V2: Walking, talking,
Hiding the truth behind your eyes.
Girl, I see the pain you’re going through
And it makes me wanna cry.
V3: Deep breaths,
Fists clenched,
Telling yourself you won’t get through the night.
You’ve had enough, tired of this s***
And can’t deal with another fight.
You can’t deal with another fight.
CHORUS:
But if you wanna sail the world,
Just keep on sailin’.
Don’t ever let anyone tell you
To stop believin’.
Don’t ever back down, don’t ever give up,
Even when the going gets rough.
But most of all,
You should know this too:
I’m always here for you.
V4: Running
Faster,
In your dreams you are so free.
No one telling you you’re weak and small,
No one telling you, you don’t matter at all.
V5: And you’re the strongest one,
You’ve been through it all,
And you don’t even complain.
Girl, I know you don’t deserve all of this pain.
CHORUS:
So if you wanna sail the world,
Just keep on sailin’.
Don’t ever let anyone tell you
To stop believin’.
Don’t ever back down, don’t ever give up,
Even when the going gets rough.
But most of all,
You should know this too:
God’s watching over you.
V6: You look in the mirror
And see defeat.
The pain in your smile
As clear as words in concrete.
But don’t give up hope,
You gotta keep on keepin’ on.
CHORUS:
And I know if you wanna sail the world
You will keep sailin’.
You won’t let anyone tell you
To stop believin’.
You won’t back down, you won’t give up,
Even when the goin’ gets rough.
But most of all,
I know this is true:
I’m always here for you. (x3)
