Don't you cry, don't you look so sad   We both knew somehow this day would come   I know you want what is best for me   And I need to see you smile         From where I started off to where I am   It's a million miles, I can't go back there again   But no matter where I go from here   You will be part of me from now on         For every door that opens up   When another has to close   You got to trust me now   Be strong and let me go         Watch me now as I go my way   The time has come   And I gotta say I'm not afraid   Watch me now, every step I take   I feel stronger, so much stronger   The road ahead is a mystery   Your love is here   Oh and I believe inside of me   Watch me now, I can stand my ground   I will be alright, yes I'll be alright         You were someone who believed in me   When I wasn't even sure of myself   And I always will remember how   You were always there to help         And I heard so many things from you   And I'm ready now to try them out in the world   Though it hurts too much to say goodbye   We both know (We both know)   There's no other way         I will feel your loving arms   When I'm out there in the cold   'Cause all of my thoughts of you   Will still be mine to hold         Watch me now as I go my way   The time has come   And I gotta say I'm not afraid   Watch me now, every step I take   I feel stronger, so much stronger   The road ahead is a mystery   Your love is here   Oh and I believe inside of me   Watch me now, I can stand my ground   I will be alright, yes I'll be alright         You will find me running back sometime   When I really need a guiding hand   We'll be closer than we were before   And I know that you will understand   I know you'll understand         Watch me now as I go my way   The time has come   And I gotta say I'm not afraid   Watch me now, every step I take   I feel stronger, so much stronger   The road ahead is a mystery   Your love is here   Oh and I believe inside of me   Watch me now, I can stand my ground   I will be alright, yes I'll be alright         Oh I will be alright
