Dido - Give Me Strength Lyrics

Sitting in the rain alone
Looking at a place that's gone
Boarding up my memories
But something's drawn me here again
And I can not leave the past alone

I hope that I would never find
All the shit I left behind
Now I find the child in me
Is going to remind me
That I can't forget my past for long

So take a look outside yourself
And tell me what you see
I can't believe that you won't see
The change in me

Give me strength
To find the road that's lost in me
Give me time to heal
And build myself a dream

And give me eyes to see
The world surrounding me
And give me strength
To be only me

I don't wanna hear the things
You say you know all you've redeemed
'Cause I can't change what's come before
I built myself some better dreams
And cast off the fear that holds me here

So take a look outside yourself
And tell me what you see
Cause I can't believe that you won't see
The change in me

Give me strength
To find the road that's lost in me
Give me time to heal
And build myself a dream

And give me eyes to see
The world surrounding me
And give me strength
To be only me
