Half That Strong - Presley Tennant

(Reed Nielsen/Jeffrey Steele) If love was a river rushin' down to the sea I'd wanna jump right in to the middle of it Let it carry me And pullin' me under and takin' my breath away Rollin' with the flow wherever it goes Whatever it takes I want a love that strong I want a love that wild I want to dig that deep I want to reach that high One that'll last a whole life long I want a love that strong A man and a woman sittin' in a small cafe They met fifty years ago in those same two chairs On this very day He still brings her flowers just to hear that little laugh She still thinks he's a knight in shining amour And it's as simple as that I want a love that strong I want a love that wild I want to dig that deep I want to reach that high One that'll last a whole life long I want a love that strong I want a love that strong I want a love that wild I want to dig that deep I want to reach that high One that'll last a whole life long I want a love that strong I want a love that wild I want to dig that deep I want to reach that high One that'll last a whole life long I want a love that strong

Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph There's a pale moonshine above you Do you see both sides, do they shove you around Is the touchstone forcing you to hide, Joseph Are the rumors eating you alive, Joseph When the holy night is upon you Will you do what's right The position is yours From the temple walls to the New York night Our decisions rest on a child When she took her stand Did she hold your hand Will your faith stand still or run away Run away When they've driven you so far That you think you're gonna drop Do you wish you were back there at the carpenter shop With the plane and the lathe The work never drove you mad You're a maker, a creator Not just somebody's dad From the temple walls to the New York night Our decisions rest on a man When I take the stand When I take the stand Will he hold my hand Will my faith stand still or run away (Run away) And the desert It's a hell of a place to find heaven Forty years lost in the wilderness looking for God And you climb to the top of the mountain Looking down on the city Where you were born (On the years since you left gave you time to sit back and reflect) Better you than me (Better you than me) Better you than me Yes Well the Holy night is upon you (Better you than me) Better you than me Better you than me Do you see both sides, do they shove you around Better you than me, Joseph (Better you than me) Better you than me Joseph, Joseph, Joseph, Joseph Than me Better you than me Better you than me (Better you, better you, better you) Than me Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
