Almost nothing shakes me
But I'll admit tonight I'm scared
Scared to death
All this talk of leaving
Walking away from love we've shared
Takes my breath
I could find the strength within myself

CHORUS:
But I don't wanna be that strong
I don't want to know that feeling
Of barely hanging on
While my broken heart is healing
I know the hands of time
Would hold me until all the hurt is gone
I know 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
And somehow face the lonely nights
For a while
And when I need to I could even force a smile

CHORUS

I know I could make it on my own
But I don't wanna be that strong
