Stronger (The Album Edition)

STRONGER

In my blood

there’s a memory,

Faded photos

burn inside me

I remember

though not clearly

How it was to

have you near me

Innervisions

blind and guide me

I hear whispers

and look for signs, I

turned around and

you were gone

I made my rules up

as I went along

And my heart says you’re still with me

But my mind says I’m alone.

I am stronger – I’ve done it without you

I’ll go further - alone

I am stronger – but nowhere without you

Father, father – wherever you are

wherever you are

Built a future

in your shadow

I reached for light where

new hope can grow

Roots that pull me

to the ground

are not too strong to

turn around

And a light begins to shine

From somewhere deep inside

I am stronger – I’ve done it without you

I’ll go further - alone

I am stronger – but nowhere without you

Father, father – wherever you are

wherever you are

Have you seen what I’ve become.

All the love – I have around me.

Maybe there’s a reason with the struggle I have seen

Of All the things I’ve said and done

Of success and of disaster

I see You in my reflection – Oh how I feel it pull me in

I am stronger – I’ve done it without you

I’ll go further - alone

I am stronger – but nowhere without you

Father, father – wherever you are

wherever you are
