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 now your back, from outta 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 cuz your not welcome anymore
|
Weren¡¯t you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
|
Did ya think I¡¯d crumble
|
Did ya think I¡¯d crumble did ya 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 ill stay alive
|
Ive got all my life to live I¡¯ve got all my love to give
|
Ill survive I will survie hey hey
|
(music)
|
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
|
And tried so 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,
|
Im 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
|
But now I¡¯m saving all my loving for someone whos loving me
|
Go on now go walk out the door
|
Just turn around now cuz your not welcome anymore
|
Werent you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
|
Did ya think I¡¯d crumble did ya 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 ill stay alive
|
Ive got all my life to live I¡¯ve got all my love to give
|
Ill survive..i will survive ohh go on now go
|
Walk out the door just turn around now cuz your not welcome anymore
|
....continuing chorus......
