What started out as small talk

On a bus stop bench before work

Turned into the greatest love story

I've ever heard

She said de's not the kind to send roses

Can't afford diamonds and pearls

When it comes to lifting my sprits

He's the strongest man in the world


She said he stops my tears before they start

He can be so tender and still be tough

With his crocked smile melt my heart

Fill an empty room with love if anybody can

'Cause he's the strongest man in the world


She said he's always leavin' love notes

On the refrigerator door

And I leave him surprises in his lunch box

To even up the score

I was thinkin' what I'd give to be with

Such a wonderful girl

But I know I couldn't compete with

The strongest man in the world


She said he stops my tears before they start

He can be so tender and still be tough

With his crocked smile melt my heart

Fill an empty room with love if anybody can

'Cause he's the strongest man in the world


Then she pulled out his picture

That's when I realized

The strongest man in the world

Was only five
