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 did 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 that stupid lock
I should 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.
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! 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
and I will survive,
I will survive
!hey, hey!
It took all the strength I had
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 somebody new
I´m not that chained up little person
still in love with you.
And so you felt like dropping in,
and you just expect me to be free
but now I´m saving all my lovin´
for someone who´s lovin´ me.
Go 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´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.
