I'm Gonna Be Alright

It's funny 'cause for a while I walked around with a smile But deep inside I could hear voices telling me this ain't right Don't you know it's not for you I always knew what I had to do But it's hard to get away Because I love you I just tried to stay I used to say I couldn't do it But I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it And I know inside I'm gonna be alright I said I couldn't do it But I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright Friends of mine say to me They say you got control over me You're not alone I played a part I saw the way you were from the start Could I expect so much from you You had a girl when I first met you Did the best that you could do Now I realize that I can't change you I used to say I couldn't do it But I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it And I know inside I'm gonna be alright I said I couldn't do it But I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright Said I wouldn't walk away Somedays I want to stay But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay Never thought it would be true Me livin' without you But now it's time for me to make a move I used to say I couldn't do it But I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it
