I'm Gonna Be Strong Lyrics
I can see you're slipping
away from me
and you're so afraid
that I'll plead with
you to stay
But I'm gonna be strong
I'll let you go your way
Love is gone
There's no sense in going on
and your pity now
would be more than I could bear
So I'm gonna be strong
I'll pretend I don't care
I'm gonna be strong
and stand as tall as I can
I'm gonna be strong
and let you go along
and take it like a man
When you say it's the end
I'll hand you a line
I'll smile and say don't
you worry it's fine
and you'll never know
darling after you kiss
me goodbye
how I'll break down and...
cry
away from me
and you're so afraid
that I'll plead with
you to stay
But I'm gonna be strong
I'll let you go your way
There's no sense in going on
and your pity now
would be more than I could bear
So I'm gonna be strong
I'll pretend I don't care
and stand as tall as I can
I'm gonna be strong
and let you go along
and take it like a man
When you say it's the end
I'll hand you a line
I'll smile and say don't
you worry it's fine
and you'll never know
darling after you kiss
me goodbye
how I'll break down and...
cry
