I'm a 20-gauge shotgun, both barrels blazing I'm a hundred miles an hour around the curve without breaking I'm a herd of wild horses, through her bed of daisies She'll plant them all back again I think I'm John Wayne when I get to drinkin' I'm the first one to jump on the boat while it's sinkin' But I ain't half as tough as what I'd have you thinkin' If you really knew her, you'd know I'm the weak one She's like a lighthouse standin' in the path of a mad hurricane And her kind laughs at the lightnin' and dances around in the rain And when I'm at the end of my rope and I don't know if I can hold on She's stronger She makes the weight of the world feel as light as a feather She's the needle and thread patchin' me back together God knows I ain't perfect, but she's makin' me better If I'd never met her, I'd hate to think where I'd be She's like a lighthouse standin' in the path of a mad hurricane And her kind laughs at the lightnin' and dances around in the rain And when I'm at the end of my rope and I don't know if I can hold on She's stronger She's like a lighthouse standin' in the path of a mad hurricane And her kind laughs at the lightnin' and dances around in the rain And when I'm at the end of my rope and I don't know if I can hold on She's stronger She's stronger
