[Verse 1]
Now my mind is made up
My tears are all dried up
I have got to face this problem on my own
You said you would love me
‘Til the end of time had come
And all I’ve got’s a memory of you

[Chorus]
Well, it’s mind over matter
Baby, it’s mind over matter
Give me the strength that I need
To carry on

[Verse 2]
Sitting here, awaiting you
Not knowing if you’re gonna be true
You’re all I had in life and now we’re through
When you left, I thought of dying
Then I knew that you were lying
Got to face the facts, now we’rе through

[Chorus]
Well, it’s mind over matter
Baby, it’s mind ovеr matter
Give me the strength that I need
To carry on
[Chorus]
Well, it’s mind over matter
Baby, it’s mind over matter
Give me the strength that I need
To carry on

[Verse 3]
Sitting here, awaiting you
Not knowing if you’re gonna be true
You’re all I had in life and now we’re through
When you left, I thought of dying
Then I knew that you were lying
I got to face the facts, and now you’re gone

[Chorus]
Well, it’s mind over matter
Baby, it’s mind over matter
Give me the strength that I need
To carry on

[Outro]
Give me the strength that I need
Give me the strength that I need
Give me the strength that I need
That I need, that I need
That I need, that I need
Give me the strength that I need
‘Said give me the strength that I need…
