|
At first I was afraid I was petrified |
|
Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side |
|
But then I spent so many nights |
|
Thinkin' how you did me wrong |
|
And I grew strong |
|
And I learned how to get along |
|
So 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 |
|
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 |
|
I will survive |
|
I will survive |
|
Hey hey |
|
[song stops here on Siberry version -- doesn't include this next verse] |
|
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart |
|
Kept 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 see me |
|
Somebody new |
|
I'm not that chained up little person |
|
Still in love with you |
|
And so you feel like droppin' in |
|
And just expect me to be free |
|
Now I'm savin' all my lovin' |
|
For someone who's lovin' 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 |
|
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 |
|
I will survive |
|
I will survive |
|
Hey hey |
