At first i was afraid i was pertrified
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 your so your 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 known for just one second you\'d be back to bother me
oh now go, walk out the door
just turn around now cuz your not welcome anymore
weren\'t you the one who tried to hurt me with good-bye
you think i\'d crumble 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 and i\'ve got all my love to give
i\'ll survive i will survive hey hey!

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 o-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 felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
Well now I\'m saving all my loving for someone who\'s loving 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 break me with goodbye\'s,
you think I\'d crumble you think I\'d lay down and die
o-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 and I\'ve got all my love to give
I \'ll survive I will survive
