Phoebe Silva - Strong Enough

My darling, it's true
I tremble with longing
Every time I'm around you
But please don't confuse
My affection with the feeling that you're drowning
That's not about me
Baby it's true
I can handle you
But you're not strong enough for me

I know you're intrigued
Like so many men before you
I wear my heart out on my sleeve
And I sleep just to dream
I've got this fire inside
I could light this whole damn house up
With the slightest admission of my desire
And I could love you til the end of time
But you'll never be mine
Baby it's true
I can handle you
But you're not strong enough for me

I've played this scene out so many times
But this time I'm not crying
And I'm thinking that's a sign
That I'm finally standing tall on my own two feet
I don't need anyone to hold my hand
No validation from any man
I don't want anything but sweet love and devotion
I was never good at being discreet

I like being alone
But man I love falling
But no longer apart
Now I've mended my heart
I've gotten so good at letting go
But I wanted you to know
I could take all of your pain
I could love your fears away
I can handle anything that you throw at me
But darling you're right
That's just no life
So I'm saying goodnight
And it's ok
Maybe someday I'll meet someone
Who's strong enough for me
Yeah it's ok
Maybe someday
You'll be strong enough for me
