"I'm Gonna Be Strong"
(Barry Mann - Cynthia Weil)
Intro:

Verse 1:
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
[1: ]
And let you go your way
Verse 2:
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
Bridge:
/
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
Coda:
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

(cry)
