Lyrics Melissa Etheridge

Melissa Etheridge

Stronger Than Me

So you closed your eyes in the morning

You said you want to start smoking again

You said you had that dream last night

Of the stranger in your room

You said you want to start making new friends

Well I'd found some peace

You want release

You must be stronger than me

I don't know how you can take it

Invest your heart and then you break it

I don't know how you can set it free

You must be stronger than me

Set it up but it's not perfect

Tear it down cause it's not worth it

If someone else can light your mystery

They must be stronger than me

So I closed my eyes at midnight

Cinderella must go home

But the map was burned

And I've taken a wrong turn

And I found myself alone

I'm tired of this war

I don't want to fight no more

You must be stronger than me

So it's too late then

You could have told me when

Living died and passion lied

Now you're a refugee

Well if it's what you need

Run away from the truth you see

You must be stronger than
