She put her hand on my hand and with teary eyes she said
Precious time we had together
With a stone in my heart I stood up and love was gone
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Oh Lord
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Oh Lord
Meet me at the gates my love down by the lock tonight
In a sequined dress she said everything will be alright
Precious time we had together
With a stone in my heart I stood up and love was gone
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Oh Lord
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Oh Lord
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
With a rose in her hand and a candle on her chair
She put her hand on my hand and with teary eyes she said
Sometimes Lord it’s hard not to lie down
But with a fire in my heart I get up and I am strong
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Oh Lord
Makes me stronger
Makes me wiser
Oh Lord
With a stone in my heart I stood up and I got strong
