Patty Loveless - I Don't Wanna Be That Strong lyrics

Almost nothing shakes me. I'll admit tonight I'm scared, scared to d**h. All this talk of leavin', Walkin' away from love we've shared takes my breath. I could find the strength within myself. But I don't wanna be that strong. I don't wanna know that feeling, Of barely hangin on while my broken heart is healing. I know the hands of time would hold me until all the hurt is gone. I could make it on my own, But I don't wanna be that strong. I could hold my head up. I could keep the tears inside for a while. Fill the anxious days. Somehow face the lonely nights for a while. When I need to I could even force a smile. But I don't wanna be that strong. I don't wanna know that feeling, Of barely hanging on while my broken heart is healing. I know the hands of time would hold me until all my hurt is gone. I could make it on my own, But I don't wanna be that strong.
