Girl of Steel, Heart of Gold

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some people talk about being tough But they ain't seen what I've seen A girl who chose the harder road When easy would've been mean She walked away from all she knew Slept thirty nights behind the wheel No roof, no shower, no open door Just a heart made out of steel [Chorus] Brandy, you're the fire and the faith The strongest soul I've ever known You never asked for a single thing You built your world on your own With those blue eyes and that red hair flame Girl, you take my breath away You're the air I breathe, the love I need Every single day [Verse 2] They tried to break you more than once The storms kept rolling in But you stood up every time they hit And you fought your way to win That birthday morning on my step A gift before you drove alone You wouldn't tell a soul but me So I picked up that phone [Chorus] Brandy, you're the fire and the faith The strongest soul I've ever known You never asked for a single thing You built your world on your own With those blue eyes and that red hair flame Girl, you take my breath away You're the air I breathe, the love I need Every single day [Bridge] I told you don't you worry now I got you in my pocket, girl You don't have to face this life alone Not in this whole wide world [Verse 3] Now we're growing gardens side by side Cold draft beer on a Friday night Annie running circles in the yard Like everything turned out right Four wheels kicking up the dust Your laughter louder than the sound You chose to keep on living full And Brandy, look what we found [Chorus] Brandy, you're the fire and the faith The strongest soul I've ever known You never asked for a single thing You built your world on your own With those blue eyes and that red hair flame Girl, you take my breath away You're the air I breathe, the love I need Every single day [Outro] So lean on me when the night gets long My girl of steel with the gentle heart You're my everything, my guiding light And you have been from the start
