I can see
You're slipping away from me
And you're so afraid
That I'll plead with you to stay,
But I'm gonna be strong:
I'll let you go your way.
Love is gone;
There's no sense in going on
And your pity, now,
Would be more than I can bear.
So I'm gonna be strong:
I'll pretend I don't care.
I'm gonna be strong
And stand as tall as I can.
I'm gonna be strong
And let you move along
And take it like a man...
When you say "it's the end"
I'll hand you a line,
I'll smile and say:
"Don't you worry, it's fine!"
And you'll never know, darling,
After you kiss me goodbye...
How I'll break down and cry!
Cry...!
Cry...!
