The Strength I Need Lyrics by Amanda Somerville

In the Beginning There Was...

0

I can feel the tumble weeds blowing
Through the desert that is now my life
I can feel the emptiness echo
Through the chambers that hold my heart
I miss you, and it's hell, but I’ll go on
I will go on

Now, everyone worries, but I know with time
This will be all, die down and it’s work out fine
I only wish you could see how hard it is
Without you near to me
You’re so dear to me

I have to keep in mind that I haven’t changed
I harbor no bitterness though I feel pain
I bear no guilt, I’m not ashamed
I’ve done all that I can and I will remain

Heaven, give me the strength I need
There’s chill upon the air, bit I welcome the cold
And I suppose that’s strange
There’s a roar up in the sky
But I think it’s the stars telling me to wait
I miss you, and it’s hell, but I wait here
Oh, I stay quiet

And the hardest thing is my helplessness
I’ve opened the door, now you have the rest
I can’t mend a wound inside you that’s not from me
But it’s still so hard without you near to me
You’re so dear to me

I have to keep in mind that I haven’t changed
I harbor no bitterness though I feel pain
I bear no guilt, I’m not ashamed
I’ve done all that I can and I will remain

Heaven, give me the strength I need

Oh, love
Oh, my love
Give me the strength I need

‘Cause I haven’t changed
I harbor no bitterness though I feel pain
I bear no guilt, I’m not ashamed
I’ve done all that I can and I will remain

Heaven, give me the strength I need

Give me the strength I need
Give me the strength I need
