Hey, let's not let this cause swords to cross over a simple kiss
He, he just wished me well he knows I'm movin on he can tell
So don't get mad at me I'm dealin with this how I see
And if you wanna stick around this bridge might stand on solid ground.

Chorus
Why can't you see, why can't you see
I'm tryin to be forever strong
Why can't you see, why can't you see
I'm tryin to be forever strong
It's plain to see, so plain to see
I'm holdin on but who knows for how long.

Hey, say you understand, a friend indeed is a friend near at hand
And I know all the wrong he did, but a goodbye kiss seals tight the lid
And look, I've walked away, hope I can face another day
So try to appreciate I'm findin it tough to control my own fate.

Why can't you see, why can't you see
I'm tryin to be forever strong
Why can't you see, why can't you see
I'm tryin to be forever strong
It's plain to see, so plain to see
I'm holdin on but who knows for how long.

Forever strong
Forever strong
I'm tryin to be forever strong.

Forever strong
Forever strong
I'm tryin to be forever strong.
