Lyrics

Stronger

When I look west all I see is unforgiven
and when I look back east there’s nothing left for me.
It seems like all the days I’ve lived add up to nothing
And all I wanna do is hold you Annalee.

I remember tellin’ stories on the ride home,
laughin’ loud and singin’ slightly out of key.
And all those voices in my head do all the talkin’
till there’s no one left but me to disagree.

How I wish I, how I wish I-
Could’ve been stronger, stronger

When it all goes down like a twister on the ground,
Scatters all your love away
and time won’t wait for you to catch your breath.
And there’s no rewind for the one you left behind-
Just memories that never run out
I just never could open up to let you in.
If I could turn, turn, turn around
I would never push you out or let you down.
If I could turn, turn, turn around
If I could turn, turn, turn around

When I look back to the days when I was younger
Seemed like everything was possible for me.
All the time I spent alone to sit or wonder
till time became the only enemy.

How I wish I, how I wish I-
Could’ve been stronger, stronger,
stronger, stronger
