Lyrics
Well, at first I was afraid, I was petrified
I didn't think that I could live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew stronger, and I learned how to get along
And now you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you with that look upon your face
I should have changed the stupid lock
I should have asked you for the key
If I'd have known for just one minute you'd be back to bother me
Go on now, go, walk out the door
Don't 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 no, not I, I will survive
For 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
And I'll survive
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
I had to pick up all 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 the foolish little soul that's still in love with you
And so you felt like droppin' in and just expect me to be free
Well, baby, I'm saving all my love for someone who's loving me
