Lyrics
It's such a long time
I wouldn't talk to you
I was certain that
It wasn't any use
I just played around
With anyone I could find
Now I understand
You wanted me to try
We are stronger
Every day
And we're never
Going away
The people in the club
They talk a lot of trash
They want to put us down
Like we ain't got no class
But we don't give a damn
Because we understand
They want to be like us
So highly in-demand
We are stronger
Every day
And we're never
Going away
I loved you all along
Don't let them tell you I'm wrong
We were destined to be together
But I just had to grow up
You know that I'm right for you
I can do the things they can't do
Trust me; you're in good hands
Now give yourself to the man
We are stronger
Every day
And we're never
Going away
Going away, going away
