I was on the rebound from a broken love affair

When I first thought of glimps of her in you

And though you never measured up to what she meant to me

I couldn't find the words to tell you so

Cause I'm not strong enough to leave you and too weak to let you go

You give me precious love to hold on to

But somehow deep inside I've got a feeling that you know

I'm not strong enough to leave you and too weak to let you go

[ steel ]

Never once did you hold back the love you had for me

I guess you thought my love for you would grow

But women have a funny way of seeing through a man

But if you knew you never told me so

Cause I'm not strong enough...

No I'm not strong enough to leave you and too weak to let you go
