Eric Martin That's What I'm Here For song lyrics

Kathy's afraid of her new independence

She's thrown down the gloves

from a fight that ain't worth winning

Keeping the world at a safe distance

What doesn't kill you makes you strong

so they say

Rest your hurt on my shoulders

Custom made to carry the weight

That's what I'm here for

When you're shut out and the doors are closing

That's what I'm here for

I'll take on your salvation and put you right

Kathy's amazed at her broken reflection

She paints a brave face that seems almost convincing

Riding her hopes on some magic answer

Sometimes losing's like the last train out

A dime for some small talk

And crying out loud, maybe turn it around

That's what I'm here for

When you're shut out and the doors are closing

That's what I'm here for

I'll take on your salvation and put you right

What doesn't kill you makes you strong

so they say

Rest your hurt on my shoulders

Custom made to carry the weight
