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 strong and i learned how to get along
And so you're back from out of space
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look up on your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If i'd known just for one second, you'd be back to bother me
Oh, now go, walk out the door just turn around now
Cause you're not welcome any more
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Do you think i crumble, do you think i lay down and die
Oh, no not i, i will survive for as long as i know how to love
I know i'm still alive, i've got all my life to live i've got all my love to
Give
And i'll survive, i'll survive
You took all the strength i had not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And i spent all 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 personstill in love with you
And now you felt like dropping in and expect me to be free
Now i'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
