When her husbands asleep
 Crossing the phone lines for comfort
 And she cries that she needs him and
 Someday he'll change
 And now's not a good time to go
 And it isn't my place to say leave him and run
 Cause no love is worth all the damage he's done
 But if she'll hold her ground
 Then I'll hold my tounge, ever the diplomat
 Oh I'd like to think
 That I would be stronger than that

 Where's her head?
 Where's her nerve?
 Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
 Oh I would be stronger
 I would not stay one minute longer
 I would be stronger than that

 It started out good, they usually do
 Then one day it's taken for granted
 Til word become weapons and love turns to pain
 Oh, why is she still holding on
 She says living without him
 Is too hard to face
 And I try to imagine myself in her place
 But with well chosen words and well placed tears
 She forgives him in two seconds flat
 Oh I'd like to think that I would be stronger than that

 Where's her head?
 Where's her nerve?
 Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
 Oh I would be stronger
 I would not stay one minute longer
 I would be stronger than that

 I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say
 That my life and her life are like night and like day
 And her love is the love that will save him
 Brave words, but I don't believe them

 Where's her head?
 Where's her nerve?
 Does part of her think this is all she deserves?
 Oh I would be stronger
 I would not stay one minute longer
 I would be stronger than that

 Oh I would be stronger than that
 I would not wait one minute longer
 I would be stronger than that
