If I have another round
I might leave with you right now
Sounds good, but what about tomorrow?

Could I face another day?
Could I wash it all away?
Would it leave me feeling stained and hollow?
Tell me, would you make it worth all the sorrow?

It ain't easy
Being strong
So hard to walk away
From what you want

Yeah, it would feel so right
But it would feel so wrong
No, it ain't easy being strong

Temptation is a funny thing
It'll tell you it's okay
Go ahead, and get swept away
It's all right

But when I come back down to earth
I'm gonna know it wasn't worth
All the guilt and all the hurt for one night
Yeah, you can wait, I'm gonna pay the price

It ain't easy
Being strong
So hard to walk away
From what you want

Yeah, it would feel so right
But it would feel so wrong
No, it ain't easy bein' strong

But it would feel so right
But it would feel so wrong
No, it ain't easy, oh, it ain't easy
No, it ain't easy being strong, uh

It ain't easy
Being strong
