    Just broke my heart all over again listening to this exquisite version. I am filing divorce papers Monday, despite my husband being my greatest weakness and the love of my life. I will never find that completeness, as I’m not just strong enough. For you A as I know you will see this. If it’s not too late, now is the time.

    Holy shit. I was amazed at the original version, with Robben Ford's exquisite earthly blues guitar playing. I just loved it. Now this man ( who is by far, far, far the most underrated genius in pop music) put it at #2 with his sole voice and minimal piano backup. Absolutely on par with Billy Joel's 'And so it goes', just with a far superior voice. The Doobies never recovered after he left, and were nowhere when he joined. Genius.

    Used to think I wore myself out on you
    Trying to measure up
    Now I know I just grew tired of forgiving you, baby
    For not loving me enough
    Now I realize it's in my nature
    To want to hold on to what I thought it was
    Just as long as I'm still just strong enough
    I never had the sense to surrender
    Or the grace to walk away
    Always hoping against all hope
    You'd have a change of heart someday
    Oh, but ain't it only human nature
    To want to love and be loved
    Just as long as I'm still just strong enough
    Though you're my greatest weakness
    I keep carrying that weight
    I keep looking for completeness, baby
    I tell myself it's not too late
    Not as long as I'm still just strong enough
    With a heart that still remembers
    And a love that won't give up
    No, not as long as I'm still just strong enough
    Though you're my strongest weakness
    I keep carrying that weight
    I keep looking for completeness, baby
    I tell myself it's not too late
    Oh no, not as long as I'm still strong enough
