i'm gonna be strong lyrics

(weil/mann) screen gems-emi music ltd.
I can see
You're slipping away from me
And yet 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 that I don't care


Chorus:
I'm gonna be strong
And stand as tall as I can
Yes, I'm gonna be strong
And as you walk along
I'll take it like a man


I can see
You're slipping away from me
And yet so afraind
I'll plead with you to stay
But I'm gonna be strong
And let you go your way


Chorus


When you says it's the end
I'll just have 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 breakdown and cry
