Stronger Now Lyrics

I held you for a moment in my hands
The moment with you slipped away like sand
Through my fingers now
In front of me a choice I have to make
To carry on or simply fade away
I lose you either way
I? like to say that it was easy
It was hard to say goodbye
I thought that I would die

CHORUS
Letting go of you
Was so hard to do
And I thought that it would kill me
But I made it through somehow
And I'm so much stronger now
I gave to you my love and my respect
But I could never make you love me back
I denied it, so,
I grew bitter watching you grow cold
My life became your prison
Took it's toll
I decided
Like a bird that's trapped inside a gilded cage
It's right to set it free
Hurts to watch it fly away
CHORUS
