Oh yes Yes I did baby Yes I did It's funny 'cause for a while I walked around with a smile, but Deep inside I could hear Voices telling me this ain't right Don't you know it's not for you I always knew what I had to do But it's hard to get away Because I love you I just tried to stay I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it (yes I did) After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh yeah) Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And I know inside I'm gonna be alright (I'm gonna be alright) I said I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright Friends of mine say to me Say you got control over me You're not alone, I played my part I saw the way you were from the start Could I expect so much from you You had a girl when I first met you Did the best that you could do Now I realize that I can't change you I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And I know inside I'm gonna be alright (be alright) I said I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright Said I wouldn't walk away Somedays I want to stay (days I want to stay) But leaving you is what I need to do to be okay (need to be okay) Never thought it would be true Me livin' without you (livin' without you) But now it's time for me to make that move I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it (but I did baby) After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (wasn't with it) Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it (to my eyes) And I know inside I'm gonna be alright (be alright) I said I couldn't do it, but I did it (but I did it) After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (wasn't with it ) Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And I know inside I'm gonna be alright (be alright) I said I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it (oh no) Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And I know inside I'm gonna be alright (be alright) I said I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And that voice inside says I'm gonna be alright I used to say I couldn't do it, but I did it After telling everybody that I wasn't with it Though it brings tears to my eyes, I can feel it And I know inside
