Standing Tall
Everything I tried to do for you, always turned out wrong
It took a lot of love inside of me, to keep me here this long
It's too late to dim the lights again, expecting me to crawl
Tonight I'm finally leavin', and I'm leavin' standin' tall
If I could see inside your mind, I wonder what I'd find
There's something there, that's made me come
So close to losing mine, the tallest tree will sometimes bend
That don't make it fall
Tonight I'm finally leavin', and I'm leavin' standin' tall
Now I'm picking up the pieces of the heart you've been breaking
I'm down on my knees to try and find them all
And when I get up one long last look
Is all that I'll be takin'
Tonight I'm finally leavin' and I'm leavin' standin' tall
Tonight I'm finally leavin' and I'm leavin' standin' tall
It took a lot of love inside of me, to keep me here this long
It's too late to dim the lights again, expecting me to crawl
Tonight I'm finally leavin', and I'm leavin' standin' tall
If I could see inside your mind, I wonder what I'd find
There's something there, that's made me come
So close to losing mine, the tallest tree will sometimes bend
That don't make it fall
Tonight I'm finally leavin', and I'm leavin' standin' tall
Now I'm picking up the pieces of the heart you've been breaking
I'm down on my knees to try and find them all
And when I get up one long last look
Is all that I'll be takin'
Tonight I'm finally leavin' and I'm leavin' standin' tall
Tonight I'm finally leavin' and I'm leavin' standin' tall
