Sweetheart (Stronger Than That)

----------

I know you're hurting, sweetheart, and I know you want to cry,

I know you're scared and lonely, you don't want to say goodbye

He should not have hurt you, sweetheart, but by now you should expect

the trash you hang around with will not treat you with respect

- : - : -

There's a world much bigger than that

There are stories sadder than that

You're a whole lot smarter than that

You're a whole lot stronger than that

- : - : -

He left you hurting, sweetheart, but don't let him see you cry

Even though you're scared and lonely, girl, you've got to say goodbye

I know he should not have left you, but sweetheart, you can't expect

him to turn around and start right now to show you some respect

- : - : -

There's a world much bigger than that

There are stories sadder than that

You're a whole lot smarter than that

You're a whole lot stronger than that

- : - : -

They say to walk beside a friend

he'll fill your world, he'll fill you heart

But do they think that in the end

if he falls down, you'll fall apart?

- : - : -

We've got a world much bigger than that

I've heart stories sadder than that

You're a whole lot smarter than that

Sweetheart, a whole lot stronger than that
