At first I was afraid I was petrified, Thinkin´ I couldn´t live without you by my side, And after spending nights Thinkin´ how you did me wrong, I grew strong and I learned how to get along. Now you´re back from outer space, And I´m findin´ you here With that sad look upon your face. I should have changed that stupid lock, Or made you leave your key, If I´d have known for one second You´d be back to bother me. Go on now, go, walk out the door, Turn around now, You´re not welcome anymore. You´re the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye, Did you think I´d crumble Did you think I´d lay down and die. Not, no, Ooh, I will survive, Long as I know how to love I know I´ll stay alive. I´ve got my life to live, And all my love to give and I will survive, I, ay ay, will survive. It took all my strength, not to fall apart, Trying´ without my mind To mend my broken heart, I spent so many nights Feeling sorry for myself. How I cry, But now I hold my head up high. And you see me somebody new, Not that lonely little person Still in love with you. Now you came droppin´ in Expecting me to be free, Now I´m savin´ my lovin´ For someone who´s lovin´ me. Go on now, go, walk out the door, Turn around now, You´re not welcome anymore. You´re the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye, Did you think I´d crumble Did you think I´d lay down and die. Not, no, Ooh, I will survive, Long as I know how to love I know I´ll stay alive. I´ve got my life to live, And all my love to give and I will survive, I, ay ay, will survive. It took all my strength, not to fall apart, Trying´ without my mind To mend my broken heart, I spent so many nights Feeling sorry for myself. How I cry, But now I hold my head up high. And you see me somebody new, Not that lonely little person Still in love with you. Now you came droppin´ in Expecting me to be free, Now I´m savin´ my lovin´ For someone who´s lovin´ me. Go on now, go!
