| At first I was afraid, I was petrified
|
| Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
|
| But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
|
| And I grew strong, and I learned how to get along
|
| And so you're back from outer space
|
| I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
|
| I should have changed that stupid lock
|
| I should have made you leave your key
|
| If I'd have known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
|
| Go on now, go. |
| Walk out the door
|
| Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
|
| Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
|
| Did you think I'd crumble?
|
| Did you think I'd lay down and die?
|
| Oh, no, not I
|
| I will survive
|
| Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
|
| I've got all my life to live
|
| I've got all my love to give
|
| And I'll survive
|
| I will survive, hey, hey
|
| It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
|
| Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
|
| And I spent, oh, so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
|
| I used to cry but now I hold my head up high
|
| And you see me somebody new
|
| I'm not that chained-up little person still in love with you
|
| And so you felt like dropping in
|
| And just expect me to be free
|
| And now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
|
| Go on now, go. |
| Walk out the door
|
| Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
|
| Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
|
| Did you think I'd crumble?
|
| Did you think I'd lay down and die?
|
| Oh, no, not I
|
| I will survive
|
| Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
|
| I've got all my life to live
|
| I've got all my love to give
|
| And I'll survive
|
| I will survive
|
| Go on now, go. |
| Walk out the door
|
| Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
|
| Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
|
| Did you think I'd crumble?
|
| Did you think I'd lay down and die?
|
| Oh, no, not I
|
| I will survive
|
| Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive
|
| I've got all my life to live
|
| I've got all my love to give
|
| And I'll survive
|
| I will survive
|
| I will survive |
