Lyrics
There were times when I never went out
Kept the curtains closed all through the day
And a broken window let the cold rain in
Lost my confidence and my way
Then a ray of light broke the darkness
On the day you walked into my life
And you showed me how to take on the world now
Oh I won't be afraid I won't cry
Chorus
Oh I am strong with you beside me
Oh I'll move on with you behind me
When things go wrong I know you'll be there
Yes I'm strong with you near me
Yes I'm strong with you by me
Intro x2
Verse 2
Standing next to you in the cool rain
I'll be dry and always warm I know
I feel safe and so secure when I'm with you
Cos in this world I won't walk alone
When someone comes round and they hurt me
When their words are grey and hard as steel
Oh I'll stand my ground I won't let my head fall
Cos you'll be standing right next to me
Chorus 2...
Instrumental
Middle 8
Come on come on don't give in
Stand up stand up don't get down
Hold on hold on never quit
If you reach out someone will help you
Chorus 3
I am strong x3
I am strong with you just near me
I am strong with you beside me
I am strong with you just here now
