Over The Rhine — Give Me Strength lyrics

Lyrics

Sitting in the rain alone
Looking at a place that’s gone
Boarded up my memories
But something’s drawn me here again and I I cannot leave the past alone
Hoped that I would never find
All the shit I left behind
Now I find the child in me Is going to remind me that I I can’t forget my past for long
So take a look outside yourself
And tell me what you see
I can’t believe
That you won’t see the change in me Give me strength to find the road that’s lost in me Give me time to heal and build myself a dream
Give me eyes to see the world surrounding me Give me strength to be only me I don’t want to hear the things
You say you know all you’ve redeemed
'Cause I can’t change what’s come before
Build myself some better dreams
And cast off the fear that holds me here
So take a look outside yourself
And tell me what you see
'Cause I can’t believe
That you won’t see the change in me Give me strength to find the road that’s lost in me Give me time to heal and build myself a dream
Give me eyes to see the world surrounding me Give me strength to be only me
