There's a friend who will call  When her husband's asleep  Crossing the phone lines for comfort  And she cries that she needs him and  Someday he'll change  And now's not a good time to go  And it isn't my place to say leave him and run  That no love is worth all the damage he's done  But if she'll hold her ground  Then I'll hold my tongue  Ever the diplomat  Oh, I'd like to think  That I would be stronger than that    Where's her head  Where's her nerve  Does part of her think this is all she deserves  Oh, I would be stronger  I would not stay one minute longer  I would be stronger than that    It started out good they usually do  Then one day it's taken for granted  'Til words become weapons and love turns to pain  Oh, why is she still holding on  She says living without him is too hard to face  And I try to imagine myself in her place  But with well chosen words and well placed tears  She forgives him in two seconds flat  Oh, I'd like to think  That I would be stronger than that    Where's her head  Where's her nerve  Does part of her think this is all she deserves  Oh, I would be stronger  I would not stay one minute longer  I would be stronger than that    I know what she's thinking and I know what she'd say  That my life and her life are like night and like day  And her love is the love that will save him  Brave words but I don't believe them    Where's her head  Where's her nerve  Does part of her think this is all she deserves  Oh, I would be stronger  I would not stay one minute longer  I would be stronger than that    Oh, I would be stronger  I would not wait one minute longer  I would be stronger than that
