Lyrics Wynette Tammy

Wynette Tammy

Standing Tall

Ev'rything I've tried to do for you has always turned out wrong

It took a lot of love inside of me to keep me here this long

It's too late to dim the lights again expectin' me to crawl

Cause tonight I'm gonna leave you and I'm leavin' standin' tall

If I could see inside your mind I wonder what I'd find

There's somethin' there that's made me come so close to losin' mine

The tallest tree will sometimes bend but that won't make it fall

I'm packin' it up to leave you and I'm leavin' standin' tall

Now I'm pickin' up the pieces of the heart that you've been breakin'

And I'm down on my knees just to try to find them all

But when I get up one long last look is all that I'll be takin'

Cause tonight I'm finally leavin' and I'm leavin' standin' tall

Yes tonight I'm gonna leave you and I'm leavin' standin' tall
