Bette Midler — God Give Me Strength

Now I have nothing, so God give me strength 'Cause I'm weak anyway And if I'm strong, I might still break And I don't have anything to share That I won't throw away into the air That song is sung out This bell is rung out He was the light that I'd bless He took my last chance of happiness So God give me strength God give me strength I can't hold on to him God give me strength When the phone doesn't ring And I'm lost in imagining Everything that kind of love is worth As I tumble back down to the earth That song is sung out This bell is rung out He was the light that I'd bless He took my last chance of happiness So God give me strength God, if he'd grant me his indulgence and decline I might as well wipe him from my memory Fracture the spell as he becomes my enemy And maybe I was washed out Like a lip print on a shirt See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt I want him, I want him to hurt Since I lost the power to pretend That there could ever be a happy ending That song is sung out This bell is rung out He was the light that I'd bless He took my last chance of happiness So God give me strength God give me strength Ooh, ooh Wipe him from my memory Ooh, I got to him wipe him from my memory Mmmm, ooh
