  • I'm not strong enough to stay away
    Can't run from you
    I just run back to you
    Like a moth I'm drawn in to your flame
    You say my name, but it's not the same
    You look in my eyes I'm stripped of my pride
    And my soul surrenders and you bring my heart to it's knees

    And it's killin' me when you're away
    I wanna leave and I wanna stay
    I'm so confused, so hard to choose
    Between the pleasure and the pain
    And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right
    Even if I try to win the fight
    My heart would overrule my mind
    And I'm not strong enough to stay away

    I'm not strong enough to stay away
    What can I do?
    I would die without you
    And your presence my heart knows no shame
    I'm not to blame
    'Cause you bring my heart to it's knees

    And it's killin' me when you're away
    And I wanna leave and I wanna stay
    I'm so confused, so hard to choose
    Between the pleasure and the pain
    And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right
    Even if I try to win the fight
    My heart would overrule my mind
    And I'm not strong enough to stay away

    There's nothing I can do
    My heart is dream to you
    And I can't get free
    Look what this life's done to me

    And it's killin' me when you're away
    I wanna leave and I wanna stay
    I'm so confused, so hard to choose
    Between the pleasure and the pain
    And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right
    Even if I try to win the fight
    My heart would overrule my mind
    And I'm not strong enough to stay away
    Strong enough
    Strong enough
    Not strong enough
    Strong enough
    To stay away
    Strong enough
    Strong enough
    Strong, strong enough
    Strong enough
    And I'm not strong enough
    To stay away Writer/s: Diane Warren
