Strong Like You (Acoustic) Lyrics

Tiny hands reaching out

For someone to hold

You were there faithfully

With a heart full of gold

I was small, you were strong

And I knew you could mend all the wrong

Please don't go, can't you stay a while

Don't you want to be with your little child

I love you so, don't want to let you go

And if you leave, I'm gonna follow you on down the road

Why can't I be strong like you

And do what you do

These tiny hands, much bigger now

Made out of your mold

Time has a cruel way

Of taking it's toll

I was here, you were there

There's not enough time, it's not fair

Please don't go, let's talk a while

Let's laugh 'til we can't hardly smile

I love you so, don't want to let you go

And if you leave, I'm gonna follow you on down the road

Why can't I be strong like you

And do what you do

A shaking hand reaching out

The same heart of gold

You're strong as ever now

As time unfolds

Take my hand, hold it tight

And know that I'm right by your side

Please don't go, let's talk a while

Let's laugh 'til we can't hardly smile

I love you so, don't want to let you go

And if you leave, I'm gonna follow you on down the road

Why can't I be strong like you

And do what you do

Why can't I be strong like you

And do what you do
