Be Strong
Levy Barrington Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, na, na, na

I've tried my best, never to stop love you
Be there for you, oh
You make my life so miserable
Jealousy and problems, coming to our lives

We've been together for so long
And we have been through so much

Try to do right
But everything I do, seems to go wrong
If I didn't love you baby
I'll be long gone
I need you now, I need you to be strong
Be strong, be strong, be strong

Oh, na, na, na

Every time I go out, she always accuse me
Smelling me and telling me, who's perfume is that
Why don't you trust me, you know I'm faithful
I only looking at other girl, but babes I don't touch

We've been together for so long
And we've been through so much

Try to do right
But everything I do, seems to go wrong
If I didn't love you baby
I'll be long gone
I need you now, I need you to be strong
Be strong, be strong, be strong

Oh, na, na, na

We've been together for so long
And we've been through so much

Try to do right
But everything I do, seems to go wrong
If I didn't love you baby
I'll be long gone
I need you now, I need you to be strong
Be strong, be strong, be strong





Oh, na, na, na
Be strong, be strong, be strong
