I had always been an independent man And I never thought I'd need a helping hand I thought I was as strong as any man could be Then you told me dear that you were leaving me And I'm not strong enough I'm not strong enough Without you dear I just can't carry on When I think of all the sweet things you have done Then I'm not strong enough to live my life alone I had never thought I needed anything Till the day you gave me back your wedding ring I have learned enough to last my whole life through And I'm not strong enough to live it without you
