[Verse 1]
I was bent, not broke
Just a shadow in my coat
You walked in slow
Changed the whole damn code
My hands were cold
My name felt small
Then you said, “Come close”
And I stood up tall
[Pre-Chorus]
You saw my scars
Like they were gold
You held my heart
And made it bold
Now I breathe easy
I don't fall apart
You found the pieces
And fit my heart
[Chorus]
Special woman, you made me strong
You pulled me back when I was gone
Special woman, you made me strong
(oh-oh) you made me strong
Love like yours
Don't come around
You lift me up
You turn me round
[Verse 2]
I used to doubt
Every step I took
Now I'm sure
When you give me that look
You talk me down
When I'm full of rain
You kiss my forehead
Take out the pain
You hold my name
Like it's yours to keep
With you beside me
I can finally sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
You saw my scars
Like they were gold
You held my heart
And made it bold
Now I breathe easy
I don't fall apart
You found the pieces
And fit my heart
[Chorus]
Special woman, you made me strong
You pulled me back when I was gone
Special woman, you made me strong
(oh-oh) you made me strong
Love like yours
Don't come around
You lift me up
You turn me round
[Bridge]
If I ever lose my way
You bring me home
If I ever hit the floor
You make me whole
One touch
One word
One look
I heard
I was half alive
Now I belong
Yeah, special woman
You made me strong
[Chorus]
Special woman, you made me strong
You pulled me back when I was gone
Special woman, you made me strong
(oh-oh) you made me strong
Love like yours
Don't come around
You lift me up
You turn me round
