I'm Gonna Be Strong
Embracing Strength in Love's Farewell: 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
And you're filled with fear
That I'll plead with you to stay
That I'll beg you to stay
But I'm gonna be strong
But I'm determined to be resilient
And let you go your way
And allow you to follow your own path
Love is gone
Love has faded
There's no sense in holding on
There's no logical reason to cling to the past
And your pity now
And your sympathy now
Would be more than I could bare
Would be more than I can endure
But I'm gonna be strong
Nevertheless, I'm resolved to be strong
And pretend I don't care
And feign indifference
I'm gonna be strong
I am committed to being resilient
And stand as tall as I can
And stand as upright as possible
I'm gonna be strong
I am determined to be strong
And let you go along
And allow you to move on
And take it like a man
And face it with courage
When you say it's the end
When you declare it's the conclusion
I'll hand you a line
I'll give you a response
I'll smile and say
I'll smile and assure you
Don't you worry I'm fine
Don't worry, I'm composed
But you'll never know darling
But you'll never realize, darling
After you kiss me goodbye
After you bid me farewell with a kiss
How I'll break down and cry
How I'll collapse and weep
