Story Behind The Song
Originally inspired by watching my son at pre-school, hiding under a big hat every day because he was shy. I wanted to do anything I could do to make him feel strong enough to take the hat off. (Then I modified the concept to apply to romantic relationships as well)

Lyrics
I didn't mean to bring you down
I didn't mean to make you cry
Enchanted
For granted
Never even no it's always slanted
Enamored
Then hammered
So much beauty is so easily shattered
What can I do to make you strong
I will do anything at all
What can I say so you belong
Promise you anything at all
Emotion
So frozen
Riding icebergs in each others' ocean
You love her
She loves you
It's just not as simple as the movies show you
What can I do to make you strong
I will do anything at all
What can I say so you belong
Promise you anything at all
Promise you anything
It's a game
Of give and take
Hit or miss
Bend or break
We're all lost at sea
What can I do to make you strong
I will do anything at all
What can I say so you belong
Promise you anything at all
