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
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
Then I learned how to get along

And so you're back, and so you're back, and so you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to find you here
Without some look upon your face
I should have changed my 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
'Cos you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt my 
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did 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 be alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive
I will survive, yeah, yeah

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 see me
Somebody new
I'm not that shying little girl just still loving you
And so you thought you'd just drop in
And you expect me to be free
But now I'm saying: all my loving
For someone who's loving me

Oh now go
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I will survive
I will survive

Oh now go
Walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cos you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt my
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
I will survive
