Stronger than myself Soprano only Harmony Echoes VERSE 1 Left you long ago A young girl I left home Ran away from you (away from you) I grew up without you Never needed help (needed help) I don’t need your lying Pain inside I felt The panic, the crying BRIDGE Knooo-ooow, the truth the truth Knooo-ooow from me to you HOOK I’m stronger by myself I’m stronger than myself You did this to yourself I don’t need your help I’m stronger by myself I’m stronger than myself I’m sorry... I’m sorry... VERSE (different melody to Vs.1) Took me some time to face what I know Bitter and silent waiting to gro-ow (the) Apple has fallen far from the treee Now it’s my time to decide who to be BRIDGE HOOK (Key Change) (Solos)

Drifting like a stream flowing free so happily Life is like a dream cause there is no boundary Shine the light through me Colours flow so lovely Deeper than the sea All my troubles lie beneath There’s no holding back Now that I am strong I’m moving I got the feeling that I’ll fine I’m like the ocean deep So much more for me to see A new discovery Yeah-eeeeee I am like the water wash the fears away Powerful in waves Troubles fade away I am like the water Wash your fears way Powerful in waves Troubles fade away Rivers don’t compete I can run through cavalry Stronger than the trees lifting roots and building seas Splashes never seen, keep it all inside of me Ever so serene there’s no bad impurity There’s no holding back Now that I am strong I’m moving I got the feeling that I’ll fine I’m like the ocean deep So much more for me to see A new discovery Yeah-eeeeee I am like the water wash the fears away Powerful in waves Troubles fade away I am like the water Wash your fears way Powerful in waves Troubles fade away
