I'm Gonna Be Strong

I can see you're slipping away from me

And you're so afraid I'll plead with you to stay

But I'm gonna be strong and let you go your way

Our love is gone, there's no sense in holding on

'Cause your pity now would be to much to bear

So, I'm gonna be strong and pretend I don't care

I'm gonna be strong and stand as tall as I can

Yes, I'm gonna be strong and let you run along

And take it like a man

When you say, "It's the end," I'll just hand you a line

I'll smile and say, "Don't you worry I'm fine"

And you'll never know, darling, after you kiss me goodbye

How I'll break down and cry
