Once I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinkin I could never live without you by my side
Then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
Then I grew strong, and I learned how to get along
And so your back from outer space
I just looked in to find you here with that
I said look for your face
Should have changed the stupid lock
Should have made you leave the key
If I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother
me
Oh, now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Word to the one who tried to hurt me with a lie
You think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive
For as long as I know how to love I know I'm still alive
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive, I will survive
If you've all the strength I have not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent, oh, so many nights feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry, but now I hold my head up high
Yeah, you see me, somebody new
I'm not that gentle little girl that's still in love with
you
Now you felt like dropping in and expect me to be free
Now I'm savin all my lovin for someone who's loving me
Boy, now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Word to the one who tried to hurt me with a lie
You think I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I, I will survive
For as long as I know how to love I know I'm still alive
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive, I will survive
(Instrumental)
