One Wish (Stronger) - Shon Penn

oh i look at your face
cos it's telling me everything i need to know
see i've searched your eyes and seen the blow by blow
cos even though you try to hide
the pain down deep inside just overflows
til you master up the strength to start again
where the thing is best to hide from all your friends
all that's really going on
just pretending to be strong
when does it end

oh if i had one wish (i'd make you)
strong enough to leave (i'd make you)
strong enough to stand (i'd make you)
strong enough to know
you're much better than that man (and i'd make you)
strong enough to leave (i'd make you)
strong enough to find (i'd make you)
strong enough to know
that you ain't gotta cry (oh you ain't gotta cry)

i'm your brother, your father, son and friend
but not your man
still i've been there for you any way i can
so it's hard to understand
how you just let that man hurt you again
when you deserve the very best a man could give
need a man who's strong but also sensitive
who cares what's on your mind
who tries to make the time to let you in

so if i had one wish (i'd make you)
strong enough to leave (and i'd make you)
strong enough to stand (i'd make you)
strong enough to know
you're much better than that man (and i'd make you)
strong enough to leave (i'd make you)
strong enough to find (and i'd make you)
strong enough to know
that you ain't gotta cry

i'll always be the shoulder that you can lean on
just call on me (call on me)
put you in my arms til your pain is all gone
(you'll see) why every single tear falls from your eyes
trying to show you that you don't have to cry

oh if i had one wish (i'd make you)
strong enough to leave (and i'd make you)
strong enough to stand (i'd make you)
strong enough to know
you're much better than that man (i would make you)
strong enough to leave (promise to make you)
strong enough to find (i'd make you)
strong enough to know (oh no you don't have to cry)

oh if i had one wish (i'd make you)
strong enough to leave (promise i'd make you)
strong enough to stand (i'd make you)
strong enough to know
you're much better than that man
strong enough to leave
strong enough to find
strong enough to know
that you ain't gotta cry
na na no (strong enough)
you ain't gotta cry no
