I'm Gonna Be Strong

Cyndi Lauper

I can see you're slipping

away from me

and you're so afraid

that I'll plead with

you to stay

So 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 too much to 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 brake down

and cry...
