[Verse 1: Foy Vance]
I remember way back when
I felt only ennui
Like nothing could complete me
No promise of a rising sun
Illuminating everyone
The very thought defeating

[Chorus: Foy Vance]
But if I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough?
Am I strong enough?
I once built a bower, I could build you a home
Together forever, but forever and on is still not long enough
It's still not long enough

[Verse 2: Anderson East]
The look of fear was in your eyes
And I could see myself as a child
Such a devastating feeling
How I wish I could go back in time
All I could do was apologize
Right then, your eyes were healing
They were healing
[Chorus: Anderson East]
If I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough?
Am I strong enough?
I once built a bower, I could build you a home
Together forever, but forever and on is still not long enough
It's still not long enough

[Bridge: Foy Vance]
Oh, I've been Cain, but I wanna be able
Been a drunken fool
But I wanted to be stable enough to lay every one of my cards on the table
I hope it's not too late for us to find a way through

[Chorus: Foy Vance & Anderson East]
If I woke in the morning to find you were gone
I know I'd try and find the will to be strong
But am I strong enough?
Am I strong enough?
I once built a bower, I could build you a home
Together forever, but forever and on is still not long enough
It's still not long enough

[Outro: Foy Vance & Anderson East, Foy Vance]
I went looking inside myself for a home
Found only a sapling in search of an oak
But it's a start, my love
Oh, it's a start, my love
But am I strong enough?
