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
