Intro

Verse 1

I guess you could say I’m one of those girls

 That’s always been with one of those guys

You know the type

 Like right now, he sleeps while I write

 But it’s better than crying

 I’m worn out from trying

 From loving a man who always makes it clear

 I’m not welcome here

 Just when he’s hungry or frisky

 or needs something cleaned

 You know what I mean

 But not to - night

 ‘Cause come the morning light

Chorus 1

 I’m gonna love my - self more than any - one else

Believe in me, even if someone can’t see

 A stronger woman in me

 I’m gonna be my own best friend

 Stick with me till the end

 Won’t lose my - self a - gain, never, no,

 ‘Cause there’s a stronger woman

 A stronger woman in me

Verse 2

The light bulbs buzz, I get up

 And head to my drawer I wish there was more

I could say

 Another fairy - tale fades to gray

 I’ve lived on hope

Like a child

Walking that mile, faking that smile

All the while

 Wishing my heart had wings

Well, from now on, I’m going to be

The kind of woman I’d want my daughter to be, oh

Chorus 2

 I’m gonna love my - self more than any - one else

Believe in me, even if someone can’t see

 A stronger woman in me

 I’m gonna be my own best friend

 Stick with me till the end

 Won’t lose my - self a - gain, never, no

 ‘Cause there’s a stronger woman,

 A stronger woman

 This is me, packing up my bags

 And this is me, headed for the door

 And this is me, the best you ever had

Chorus 3

 I’m going to love my – self more than any - one else

 Be - lieve in me even if someone can’t see the

Stronger woman in me

 I’m going to be my own best friend

 Stay with me till the end

 Won’t lose my - self a - gain, no, no

 ‘Cause there’s a stronger woman

 A stronger woman

 There’s a stronger woman,

 A stronger woman in me,

 Stronger woman in me
