I'm not so tough

Everyone seems to think I'm strong

Because that's what I seem to be

But the truth is on the inside

there's a frightened little me

I spend my days and nights

praying someone will come along

Asked God to help me through

the Darkest moments I ever knew

I'm not that strong

I'm not so tough

Behind my smile

I hide so much

I hurt too, I feel the pain

I cry at night
Tears on my pillowcase

I need you to hold me

Promise me I'll be alright

I'm not that strong

The left side of my bed has never been so appealing

You're laying there, asleep, rhythmically breathing

The warmth of your skin warms my sheets and my heart

If I had it my way, we'd never sleep apart...

Whenever you leave me, your scent lingers behind

In my pillows and blankets, it's comfort I find

Till you're home again and holding me tight

Wrapped up in your love, morning, noon and night
