song lyrics
I m Gonna Be Strong lyrics
(peak Billboard position # 9 in 1964)
Words and Music by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil
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 too 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 eye-eye-eye.
