Stronger Now
The wind roars beneath the waters
And I feel I am powerless
Powerless to speak for myself
That's not what love should feel like
It shouldn't feel like you're being used
It shouldn't feel like jealousy and broken promises
Being turned around so many times
Like a teacup at a fair
Can make someone feel restless, weary, and not really there
Because I love you shouldn't mean taking away my friends
Or using them to get to me
Love should be able to speak freely I should have a voice
There should be times when I have a choice
Should be no apologies that don't belong
No kisses should feel broken and wrong
Love is patient, love is kind-it's not thinking someone
Is cheating on you if they don't respond right away
There shouldn't be lies or any half-truths
Walking on eggshells to please the other shouldn't have to be a thing
Making a vow doesn't mean making threats
Love should be like a dance that lasts all nigt long
Worshiping God and worshiping them with song
It's supposed to feel like everything is right and wrong
All at the same time
Love should be unconditional
Love should be holy and true
Thoughtful, not thoughtless
Thankful, not thankless
Hopeful, not hopeless
Warm and peaceful not cold and angry
Love should be what
Makes you feel
Good, okay
Remember, love is something you have to live
With
Every
Day.
