At first i was afraid.
i was petrified.
i kept thinking i could never live
without you by my side.
but then i spent so many nights
just thinking how you�d did me wrong.
i grew strong.
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.
�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 not i.
i will survive.
as long as i know how to love
i know i�ll be alive.
i�ve got all my life to live.
i�ve got all my love to give.
and i will survive.
i will survive.
hey hey!
it took all the strength i had
not to fall apart.
i�m 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�ll 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 you just expect me to be free.
but now i�m saving all my lovin�
for someone who�s lovin� me.
go now go.
walk out the door.
just turn around now.
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 not i.
i will survive.
as long as i know how to love
i know i�ll be alive.
i�ve got all my life to live.
i�ve got all my love to give.
i will survive.
i will survive
