I Am Strong

No more in cafes misery taunts me,

When sight of lovey-dovey couples haunts me;

No feeling sorry for having food and drink as my date;

No more feeling self-pity and cursing my fate.

No more the sight of joyful kids pinch me;

No more hunger for having a woman to kiss me;

No more ruing that I am the last in my family tree;

Nor desire of having close friends eager to meet me.

For I know now that I can be strong;

Strong enough to make it through with a song,

On my own, alone, without anyone's help;

I am strong enough to take care of myself.

No more I feel miserable thinking,

Relation with my cold parents sinking;

No more I feel jealous of people enjoying rum,

Who have someone saying they'll stick with them.

I don't need anybody, I have my phone;

If I arrived here alone and gotta leave alone,

Then being alone ain't such a bad deal;

Am able to take care of myself, is what I feel.

I talk alone, no need for anyone to show;

I can laugh and cry, alone, and when low,

I find my power within, without anyone’s help,

I am strong to take care of myself.

So what if none set me up with someone special?

So what if I never found a girl who is real?

No more grudges - perhaps it is destiny?

I am strong enough to be without anybody.

I know I will be on my own, alone, tonight;

I know I will be on my own, alone, next night;

Forever I will be on my own, with life I will fight;

I will again gather my strength and find my inner light.
