At first I was afraid,
I was petrified,
Kept thinking I could never live
Without you by my side,
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew stronger
And I learned how to get along
And now you're back
From outer space,
I'm just walking to find you here
With that look upon your face,
I should've changed that stupid lock,
I should've made leave your key,
If I'd 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
Do you think I'd crumble?
Do 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 will survive
I will survive
Hey Hey Hey!
I took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart
I try 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.
Now you see me
Somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
Still swept for you
So you felt like dropping by
And expected me to be free
Well now I'm saving all my lovin
For someone who's lovin' me
Go on 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 crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no Oh no
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 will survive
I will survive

I will I will
I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I'm not gonna stop
I'm growing stronger
I'm a survivor
I'm gonna make it
I'm not gonna stop
I'm growing stronger
I'm a survivor
I'm not gonna give up
I'm not gonna stop
I'm gon work harder
Are you listening?
Now you know it took all the strength
That I had not to fall apart
I kept trying hard to mend
The pieces of my broken heart
But I will survive
It took all the strength
I had not to fall apart
And trying hard to mend the pieces
of my broken heart
I spent so many nights
Feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
Now you see me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
Still in love with you
Oh so you felt like droppin' by
And expected me to be free
Well I'm savin' all my lovin
For someone who's lovin' me, me!
Get your stepping
Keep it moving
Get on down the road, all right?
Weren't you the one
Who tried to crush me with goodbye
Do you think I'd crumble?
Do you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no
You should leave
Show them please!
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'll survive
Hey, hey, hey!
