Don't you cry, don't you look so sad
  We both knew somehow this day would come
  I know you want what is best for me
  And I need to see you smile
    From where I started off to where I am
  It's a million miles, I can't go back there again
  But no matter where I go from here
  You will be part of me from now on
    For every door that opens up
  When another has to close
  You got to trust me now
  Be strong and let me go
    Watch me now as I go my way
  The time has come
  And I gotta say I'm not afraid
  Watch me now, every step I take
  I feel stronger, so much stronger
  The road ahead is a mystery
  Your love is here
  Oh and I believe inside of me
  Watch me now, I can stand my ground
  I will be alright, yes I'll be alright
    You were someone who believed in me
  When I wasn't even sure of myself
  And I always will remember how
  You were always there to help
    And I heard so many things from you
  And I'm ready now to try them out in the world
  Though it hurts too much to say goodbye
  We both know (We both know)
  There's no other way
    I will feel your loving arms
  When I'm out there in the cold
  'Cause all of my thoughts of you
  Will still be mine to hold
    Watch me now as I go my way
  The time has come
  And I gotta say I'm not afraid
  Watch me now, every step I take
  I feel stronger, so much stronger
  The road ahead is a mystery
  Your love is here
  Oh and I believe inside of me
  Watch me now, I can stand my ground
  I will be alright, yes I'll be alright
    You will find me running back sometime
  When I really need a guiding hand
  We'll be closer than we were before
  And I know that you will understand
  I know you'll understand
    Watch me now as I go my way
  The time has come
  And I gotta say I'm not afraid
  Watch me now, every step I take
  I feel stronger, so much stronger
  The road ahead is a mystery
  Your love is here
  Oh and I believe inside of me
  Watch me now, I can stand my ground
  I will be alright, yes I'll be alright
    Oh I will be alright
