I Would Be Stronger Than That lyrics - Faith Hill

There's a friend who will call

When her husband's asleep

Crossing the phone lines for comfort

And she cries that she needs him

And someday he'll change

And now's not a good time to go

And it isn't my place to say "Leave him and run"

That no love is worth all the damage he's done

But if she'll hold her ground

Then I'll hold my tongue

Ever the diplomat

Oh, I'd like to think

That I would be stronger than that

Where's her head?

Where's her nerve?

Does part of her think this is all she deserves?

Oh, I would be stronger

I would not stay one minute longer

I would be stronger than that

It started out good, they usually do

Then one day it's taken for granted

'Til words become weapons and love turns to pain

Oh, why is she still holding on?

She says living without him is too hard to face

And I try to imagine myself in her place

But with well chosen words and well placed tears

She forgives him in two seconds flat

Oh, I'd like to think

That I would be stronger than that

Where's her head?

Where's her nerve?

Does part of her think this is all she deserves?

Oh, I would be stronger

I would not stay one minute longer

I would be stronger than that

I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say

That my life and her life are like night and like day

And her love is the love that will save him

Brave words, but I don't believe them

Where's her head?

Oh, where's her nerve?

Does part of her think this is all she deserves?

Oh, I would be stronger

I would not stay one minute longer

I would be stronger than that

Oh, I would be stronger

I would not stay one minute longer

I would be stronger than that
