You promised me
When we became lovers
A dream to last
Like no other
But it turned to dust
When you tore us apart
With no warning
You shattered my heart

When you walked away
I thought I would never
Be the same
But now I know better
And every step
And every breath I take
I will rise above
The sadness and the pain
I'm growing stronger
Like a flower in the rain

On my own
That's not how I planned it
But here I am
I'm still standing
And I know now
The darkness has passed
And the chains that held me
Are broken at last

I can feel the power
I can see the light
I can hear my heart telling me
It's gonna be alright
Yeah it's gonna be alright...oh yeah
It's gonna be alright

And with every step
And every breath I take
I will rise above
The sadness and the pain
I'm growing stronger
Like a flower in the rain
