Ooh, yeah, yeah   Listen to me baby      You've always been there for me   I have a shoulder to cry on   Whenever I call you come running   Something I can rely on      I can see, I can see the pain in your eyes   You think a man's supposed to hide   What he's feeling inside but you're wrong      You don't have to be strong for me   You don't have to be so proud with me   You don't have to be a rock   Standing out there like an island all alone   You don't have to be strong      Ain't gonna think less of you, baby   And you know that's for sure   If the tears roll down your cheek   It'll only make me love you more      You're still a man, still my man, a man in my eyes   Let me be there for you   Like you've been there for me, all along      You don't have to be strong for me   You don't have to be so proud with me   You don't have to be a rock   Standing out there like an island all alone   You don't have to be strong, no, you don't      I know you feel   The weight of the world on your shoulders   So come over here   And, baby, just let me hold you, let me hold you      You don't have to be strong for me   You don't have to be such a proud man with me   You can let it all out   That's why I'm here that's what this love is all about      You don't have to be strong, no, no, no for me   You don't have to be so proud with me   You don't have to be a rock      Standing out there like an island all alone   You don't have to be strong   Just let me be strong for you this time
