Anything but Strong Songtext
von Eurythmics

Why do you hurt yourself?
You do it very well
You do it so politely
That you couldn′t even tell

When everything has changed
You think you're not to blame
How come you keep on talking
When the whole thing feels so strange?

But seeing is not the same as believing
When everything goes wrong
You′re anything but strong

It's all bittersweet outside in the street
The grass is growing greener underneath your feet
We come and go the deep water flows
Tiny leaves from small seeds to tall trees do grow


But wanting is not the samething as needing
There's no need to pretend
You can′t turn back again
And loving is so different to keeping
The hurting that we send is so difficult to mend

Hold on to the good things
That keep you from falling down
Hold on the the good things
That keep you from falling down

How my heart aches (how my heart aches)
More than I can take (more than I can take)
What are we really learning
When we make the same mistakes?

Where is your hope? (Where is your hope?)
It′s all gone up in smoke
You used to be so funny
Now it's just the same old joke

And laughing is so very close to crying
When there′s nothing to defend
It gets you in the end
And living is so very close to dying
You struggle on and on to find where you belong
Where do you belong?
