Stronger Than I Am

Things around here haven't changed much

It's all pretty much the same stuff, day after day

The only thing that keeps me goin'

Seems to be our baby girl I'm tryin' to raise

She's my life, my mornin' angel

Always seems to find the rainbow after the rain

But lately she's so busy growin'

I don't even think she knows you've gone away

She finally learned to say goodbye

And she's sleepin' through the night

She don't wake up cryin'

And she's walkin' on her own

She don't need no one holdin' to her hand

And I hate to admit, she's stronger than I am

And she ain't crackin' under pressure

First one step and then another, she goes along

And if she falls and skins her knee

She cries a while and smiles at me, and just goes on

So many things that she can teach me

Full of life and so completely, innocent

She still says she loves her daddy

Goes on just like nothin' happened, forgives and forgets

She finally learned to say goodbye

She's sleepin' through the night

She don't wake up cryin'

And she's walkin' on her own

She don't need no one holdin' to her hand

And I hate to admit, she's stronger than I am

She's just like her old man, stronger than I am
