My Strongest Weakness
Wynonna Judd · Collection [1997]
cause I just can't go through another heartache again
pretty lies and alibis - how could I be so blind
now I'm alone and scared to stand - slowly going out of my mind
he was my strongest weakness I surrendered heart and soul
it's gonna be a long long time 'til I regain control
I'm still a prisoner held captive by his memory
he was my strongest weakness and I'm afraid he'll always be
I gave my faithful heart to someone and couldn't understand
how he held my little world in the palm of his hand
now he's gone and life goes on so if this pain will never end
will I be afraid to risk it all - ever fall in love again
he was my strongest weakness I surrendered heart and soul
it's gonna be a long long time 'til I regain control
I'm still a prisoner held captive by his memory
he was my strongest weakness and I'm afraid he'll always be
he was my strongest weakness and I'm afraid he'll always be
