I've been living with a heart on the mend,
Wondering how will I ever be strong
I know I'll live to love again
I just leaned on you too long
It's been an uphill fight,
But I'm going to be alright

Chorus
I didn't know my own strength
Till I had to pick myself up
And carry on without your love
I'm getting back on my feet
Its been a long hard fall,
But I'll make it after all
No, I didn't know my own strength

I've had oceans of tears to get through
And the weight of the world on my mind
There's been mountains of memories to lose
And I've been beating back the blows to my pride
But till the times got tough
I never knew what I was made of

Chorus
I didn't know my own strength
Till I had to pick myself up
And carry on without your love
I'm getting back on my feet
Its been a long hard fall,
But I'll make it after
No, I didn't know my own strength

Then the times got tough
And I knew what I was made of

I didn't know my own strength
Till I had to pick myself up
And carry on without your love
I'm getting back on my feet
Its been a long hard fall,
But I'll make it after
No, I didn't know my own strength
