Lyrics

Strong and Beautiful
(c) 1999, Serina S. Jung / Eric Bernard



now and then she looks around
taking stock of everything she’s striving for
a year of slaving over-time
to save her pennies
she’s still living hand-to-mouth
but she won’t resign herself
to living this way
  
she’s alive, she dreams
she’s strong and beautiful and free
 
she’s thinking about her future
while she takes the time to fold the rags
that make up her clothes
boyfriend left her belly full
he needs his space he’s gone to forge a life of his own
but she won’t lay down
won’t curl up and die
 
she’s alive, she dreams
she’s strong and beautiful and free
 
she could resign herself to living this way
but she’s sure her life is going to change
 
she’s alive, she dreams
she’s strong and beautiful and free
 she’s strong and beautiful and free
