The Strong Hand - Foy Vance

作曲：Foy Vance

January and the year is cool

Been a while since I heard my mother's tone

Yet I know when I need her most

She lends me a shoulder

Carries my grief like

Even through the times I wouldn't let her in

Now I'll never make the same mistake ever again

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Of a kind loving mother to make the weak man

Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere

To withstand more than he can without her care

Lately I've been calling home

Speaking to my brothers on the phone

And we laugh as we're looking back

Over our shoulder

Laughing 'bout games that we play to win

And how we wouldn't let each other in

I will never make the same mistakes

Ever again

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Of a kind loving brother to make the weak man

Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere

To withstand more than he can without his care

Was a time when I believed I

Would never see a future

Now I can't see anything clearer

So tonight I'm coming home

Can't lying there alone

Stroke your hair and I'll catch your vibe

And right up over your shoulder

Dive into your world like it's gonna end

Like I may never get the chance again

Everybody needs somebody taking the pain

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Of a kind-hearted woman to make the weak man

Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere

To withstand more than he can without her care

Sometimes it takes a little planning

And whole lotta understanding to make the weak man

Dig down deep and find the strength from somewhere

To withstand more than he can without her care

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Of a kind-hearted mother

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Of a kind-hearted mother

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Of a kind-hearted momma

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Sometimes it takes the strong hand

Sometimes it takes the strong hand
