The Strongest Part of Me
You've been the glue that's held me together
When I'm with you my heart feels like it has feathers
And the thought of losing you
Brought me to my knees, just knew this I could not do
Even thought dying would be easier to bare
Couldn't stand to think you didn’t care
And in a moment of weakness I did what I knew not to
Not realizing how much more I hurt you
But now I know I made a huge mistake
And my "I'm sorry's" are anything but fake
I think back to the loves I've lost
Memories from back then and the pain caused
Then trying to love someone more than you ever have before
Falling for you more and more
Sometimes scares me more than anything
I've had a baby, made a vow, and wore a ring
Yet all those different times
All my books, all my pictures, all my rhymes
They all ended round about the same
And I was the one who almost always caught the blame
But with you still I continue to try
The truth to you I wouldn't deny
But everyday I live with that fear
That at any moment or time my dear
You'll change your mind
And there will be nothing I can do, say, or find
If a day where to come when you didn’t love me anymore
I would still love you like any day before
Knowing that this time I almost changed your mind
A different way of doing things I must find
Cuz losing you is the last thing I'd ever want to do
Because I am totally, completely, and irrevocably in love with you!
