At first I was afraid, I was petrified,
Kept thinking I could never live
Without you by my side
But then I spent oh so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
And now 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've 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?
You think I'd crumble?
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.
Well 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
Thinking how you did me wrong,
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 now you felt like dropping in,
And just expect me to be free.
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. oh oh
Oh, 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 survi-i-ive.
