Rachel Proctor - Strong As An Oak LYRICS

There's two trees in Becky Hill's front yard
One big, and one small
That big oak has been there for ages
And they planted that willow last fall

He bought it for their anniversery
So they could watch it grow like their love
But each day she looks out the window
To see it not growing that much

And she cries like that weeping willow
Every time the wind starts to blow
But one of these days she's gonna be strong
Strong like the oak

She hates the thought of leavin'
As much as she hates to stay
'Cause somewhere in her heart she still needs him
But not as much as she did yesterday

And she cries like that weeping willow
Every time the wind starts to blow
But one of these days she's gonna be strong
Strong like the oak

She'll walk out that screen door
And hold her head high
Won't look back, won't shed a tear
Righ now she's afraid of being alone
But she's been alone for years

And she cries like that weeping willow
Every time the wind starts to blow
But one of these days she's gonna be strong
Strong like the oak

Oh, one of these days she's gonna be strong
Strong as an oak
