Strong As It's Ever Been

A bunch of torn up letters

In the trash with a dried up pen

Empty bottle of wine

And these four walls caving in

The moonlight shining

Is as strong as it's ever been

Just like this love

Is as pure as it ever was

Steady as a father's hand

Warm as a summer sun

True as a Sunday hymn

But you left me with an emptiness

Gone like a midnight wind

And this heartbreak I'm left with

Is as strong as it's ever been

A pack of Marlboro Reds

Laying down on a empty bed

Got a double shot of scotch

On the rocks taking off the edge

And the long heartburn

Is as strong as it's ever been

Just like this love

Pure as it ever was

Steady as a father's hand

Warm as a summer sun

True as a Sunday hymn

But you left me with an emptiness

Gone like a midnight wind

And this heartbreak I'm left with

Is as strong as it's ever been

I wanna call you, wanna kiss you

Wanna drive by and tell you I miss you

And, baby,  this is love

Is as pure as it ever was

Steady as a father's hand

Warm as a summer sun

And true as a Sunday hymn

I don't want this emptiness

Want to hold you in my arms again

And this heartbreak I'm left with

Is as strong as it's ever been

Strong as it's ever been
