You Don't Have to Be Strong Lyrics & Tabs by The Brilliant Inventions
You Don't Have to Be Strong
guitar chords lyrics
The sun comes up on Central Park
You are lying in the dark.
New York holds you like a baby
In her arms.
Friday night did you in
Côtes du Rhône and Vicodin
A purple stain upon your skin
And you're alone.
You're tired of
Holding up
More than your half of the world
Girl...
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be strong
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
I saw your form in silhouette,
Cereal and cigarettes
And your apartment candlelit
Where shadows paint the walls.
Where strangers hang
In picture frames
Sullen faces with no names.
You want to go to where they came from
If you could.
It's hard to talk
About your pain.
Always the one holding the reins
But things change...
And you don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be...
Just lay your head
Down on my chest.
It's OK if you're broken
like me.
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be strong
When you're with me.
You don't have to be...
To be...
To be...
When you're with me.
