|
In her bare feet, a white cotton dress |
|
A ribbon holding back her curls |
|
In a sweet gentle voice, she sings a lullaby |
|
To two sleepy little girls |
|
In the nightlight glow as her babies drift off |
|
She looks so fragile, looks so, so |
|
She's strong, solid as a rock |
|
Like a lighthouse standing alone |
|
Yeah, she's strong, got the world on her shoulders |
|
She keeps carrying on |
|
She can take the heat, she can take the cold winter |
|
She's got faith, there's no quit in her |
|
She's strong |
|
Yeah, so strong |
|
There's a crayon picture says, 'We love you mom' |
|
She keeps it in a frame on her desk |
|
There's a friend of a friend who calls now and then |
|
But she's not ready just yet |
|
She might get lonely in the still of the night |
|
But she'll hold out till she knows it's right |
|
She's strong, solid as a rock |
|
Like a lighthouse standing alone |
|
Yeah, she's strong, got the world on her shoulders |
|
She keeps carrying on |
|
She can take the heat, she can take the cold winter |
|
She's got faith, there's no quit in her |
|
She's strong |
|
And sometimes when nobody else is around |
|
She gets down |
|
And sometimes in a moment of weakness |
|
A single tear falls and that's all |
|
She's strong |
|
She's strong |
|
She can take the heat, she can take the cold winter |
|
She's got faith, there's no quit in her |
|
She's strong |
|
Yeah, so strong |
|
She's strong |
|
Yeah, so strong |
