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 Without that 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 Oh now go, walk out the door Just turn around now But you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes? You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll still live I've got all my life to live I've got all my love to give And I'll survive, I will survive You took all the chance I had not to fall apart Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart And I've 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 bird I'm still in love with you And so you felt like dropping in And just expect me to be free Well now I'm saving all my loving For someone who's loving me Oh 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 goodbyes? You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll still live I've got all my life to live I've got all my love to give And I'll survive, I will survive Oh now go, walk out the door Just turn around now Cause you're not welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to crush me with goodbyes? You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll still live I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give And I'll survive, I will survive Yeah, I'll survive Oh now go, walk out the door Just turn around now Cause you ain't welcome anymore Weren't you the one who tried to crush me with goodbyes? You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die? Oh no, I, I will survive Oh, as long as I know how to love I know I'll still live I've got all my life to live And I've got all my love to give And I'll survive, I will survive
