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
