Almost nothing shakes me.
|
I'll admit tonight i'm scared, scared to death.
|
All this talk of leavin',
|
Walkin' away from love we've shared takes my breath.
|
I could find the strength within myself.
|
|
But i don't wanna be that strong.
|
I don't wanna know that feeling,
|
Of barely hangin on while my broken heart is healing.
|
I know the hands of time would hold me until all the hurt is gone.
|
I could make it on my own,
|
But i don't wanna be that strong.
|
|
I could hold my head up.
|
I could keep the tears inside for a while.
|
Fill the anxious days.
|
Somehow face the lonely nights for a while.
|
When I need to I could even force a smile.
|
|
But i don't wanna be that srong.
|
I don't wanna know that feeling,
|
Of barely hanging on while my broken heart is healing.
|
I know the hands of time would hold me until all my hurt is gone.
|
I could make it on my own,
|
But I don't wanna be that strong.
