Rachel Proctor - Strong As An Oak Lyrics
There's two trees in Becky Hill's front yardOne big, and one smallThat big oak has been there for agesAnd they planted that willow last fallHe bought it for their anniverserySo they could watch it grow like their loveBut each day she looks out the windowTo see it not growing that muchAnd she cries like that weeping willowEvery time the wind starts to blowBut one of these days she's gonna be strongStrong like the oakShe hates the thought of leavin'As much as she hates to stay'Cause somewhere in her heart she still needs himBut not as much as she did yesterdayAnd she cries like that weeping willowEvery time the wind starts to blowBut one of these days she's gonna be strongStrong like the oakShe'll walk out that screen doorAnd hold her head highWon't look back, won't shed a tearRigh now she's afraid of being aloneBut she's been alone for yearsAnd she cries like that weeping willowEvery time the wind starts to blowBut one of these days she's gonna be strongStrong like the oakOh, one of these days she's gonna be strongStrong as an oak
