I remember that night in December
When your mom said she couldn't stay sober
I walked home in the snow with my hands in my pockets
And carried her home on my shoulders
I remember the call in September
When you said that your grandpa was dyin'
I drove straight through the night just to hold you in silence
While you couldn't stop all your cryin'
And all these years
I've never been afraid
But today
I've got something to say
I've been strong for you my whole life
But I don't think you could be strong for me
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
I've been strong for you my whole life
But I don't think you could be strong for me
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
And I was just twenty when my sister got married
She stood at the altar and told me
"Please
Don't let our parents ruin my wedding"
So I kicked my mom out of the ceremony
I remember that night in July
When you told me that your parents split
You said that you'd lost all your faith in forever
I said
"You can always believe in this"
And all these years
I've never been afraid
But today
I've got something to say
I've been strong for you my whole life
But I don't think you could be strong for me
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
I've been strong for you my whole life
But I don't think you could be strong for me
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
And it's somethin' I never said 'cause I didn't wanna seem weak
