Lyrics Strong Enough to Bend - Beth Nielsen Chapman

There's a tree
Out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind
And the reason it's still standing
It was strong enough to bend

For years
We have stayed together
As lovers
And as friends
What we have
Will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend

When you say something that you can't take back
Big wind blows and you hear a little crack
But when you say "hey, well I might be wrong"
You can sway with the wind 'til the storm is gone

Like a tree
Out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind
Our love
Will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend

When you start thinking that you know it all
Big wind blows and a branch will fall
But when you say "hey, this job takes two"
You can sway with the wind 'til the sky turns blue

Like a tree
Out in the backyard
That never has been broken by the wind
Our love
Will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend

Our love
Will last forever
If we're strong enough to bend
