With a rose in her hand and a candle on her chest
She put her head on my head and with teary eyes she said:

Precious time we have together
With a stone in my heart I looked up and she was gone.
And it makes me stronger, makes me wiser
It makes me stronger, makes me wiser

Meet me at the gates my love down by the lock tonight
In a sequins dress she said everything will be alright
Well sir this time we have together
With a stone in my heart I looked up and she was gone

And it makes me stronger, makes me wiser
It makes me stronger, makes me wiser

With a rose in her hand and a candle on her chest
She put her head on my head and with teary eyes she said:
Sometimes lord, It's hard not to lay down
With a fire in my heart, I stood up and I am strong.

And it makes me stronger, makes me wiser
It makes me stronger, makes me wiser





With a stone in my heart I looked up and she was gone.
