| Song | I'm Gonna Be Strong |
| Artist | Cyndi Lauper |
| Album | Twelve Deadly Cyns... And Then Some |
| Lyrics:Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil Music:Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil | |
| 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 | |
| And let you go your way | |
| Love is gone | |
| There's no sense in holding on | |
| And your pity now | |
| Would be more than I could bare | |
| But I'm gonna be strong | |
| And 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 go 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 I'm fine | |
| But you'll never know darling | |
| After you kiss me goodbye | |
| How I'll break down and cry. |
