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 done 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 my fucking lock.
I would 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.
You`re not welcome anymore.
Weren`t you the one
Who tried to break me with desire?
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.
It took all the strength I had
Just 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 with somebody new.
I`m not that stupid little person
Still in love with you.
And so you thought you`d just drop by,
And you expect me to be free.
But now I`m saving all my lovin`
For someone who`s lovin` me.
Oh 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 desire?
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.
