When she told you goodbye
You didn’t flinch
When she looked back
You didn’t even budge an inch
You stood there like a stone
But now that’s she’s gone
How strong are you now
Without her around
You can’t even keep
One little bitty tear from falling down
Tell me how strong are you now
Before she left you told yourself
It can’t hurt that much
Now you're double over like
You took a punch
No, she ain’t coming back
Tell me how much can you take of that
How strong are you now
Without her around
You can’t even keep
One little bitty tear from falling down
Tell me how strong are you now
What’s that rule that you live by
A tough guy never cries?
How strong are you now
Without her around
You can’t even keep
One little bitty tear from falling down
Tell me how strong
Tell me how strong are you now, yeah
How strong are you now, ohh
What’s that rule you live by
You say tough guys never cry?
But how strong are you now
