I'm Gonna Be Strong
Embracing Strength in Love's Farewell: Blue Angel's 'I'm Gonna Be Strong'
Lyrics
I can see
I perceive
You're slipping away from me
You're gradually moving away from our connection
And you're so afraid
You're filled with fear
That I'll plead with you to stay
You're anxious that I might beg you to stay
But I'm gonna be strong
However, I will display strength
And let you go your way
I will allow you to pursue your own path
Love is gone
Love has faded
There's no sense in holding on
There's no logic in clinging to the past
And your pity now
Your compassion now
Would be more than I could bare
Would be more than I can endure
But I'm gonna be strong
Yet, I will exhibit strength
And pretend I don't care
And feign indifference
I'm gonna be strong
I will manifest strength
And stand as tall as I can
And stand as upright as possible
I'm gonna be strong
I will exhibit strength
And let you go along
And allow you to move forward
And take it like a man
And face it stoically
When you say it's the end
When you declare it's the conclusion
I'll hand you a line
I'll offer you a response
I'll smile and say
I'll smile and assert
Don't you worry I'm fine
Don't worry, I am well
But you'll never know darling
But you will never comprehend, darling
After you kiss me goodbye
After you bid me farewell with a kiss
How I'll break down and cry
How I will emotionally collapse and weep
