Strong Against the Wind

I found your photograph

Soon it was torn in half

Too many memories

What had become of me?

It started gradually

Like a twisted symphony

You played me like a pro

Most times I didn't even know

You'd orchestrate my every move

Now there's nothing left to prove

That song is over

I only hope that someday

You will see me

For the woman that I am

You tried to tame the tiger

But I'm a fighter

Standing strong against the wind

At first you drew me in

With a gentle kind of grin

But there behind your eyes

Would prove my big surprise

By and by you took control

Conquering my heart and soul

I tried to make a break

But I could not escape

I knew my destiny

Was really up to me

That you got so far

I only hope that someday

You will see me

For the woman that I am

You tried to tame the tiger

But I'm a fighter

Standing strong against the wind

For all the others locked in prison

It's time to break the chains that bind

Have faith in who you are

You're a rainbow, you're a star

You can reclaim your rights

Take back your days and nights

I know there's someone else who's waiting

I found your photograph

Soon it was torn in half

Too many memories

What had become of me?

You'd orchestrate my every move

And now you've nothing left to prove

That song is over

I only hope that someday

You will see me

For the woman that I am

You tried to tame the tiger

But I'm a fighter

Standing strong against the wind

I only hope that someday

You will see me

For the woman that I am
