Kept thinking I could never live
But then I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong.
And I learned how to get along.
An d 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 had known for just one second
You'd be back to bother me
Cause you're not welcome anymore
you think I lay down and die
No matter, I will survive
For as long as I know how to love
I've got all my life to live
And I've got all my luck to give
And I'll survive, I will survive
It took all the strength I
Kept trying hard to mend the
pieces of my broken heart
And I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
But now I hold my head up high
as a little person still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
Now go, walk out the door,
Weren't you the one who tried to
you'd think I'd lay down and die
No, I'm not, I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I've got all my life to live
And I've got all my love to give
Oh, I'm not the, I'm not the doll
Cause you're not welcome anymore
Were you the one who tried to
you think I'd lay down and die?
No, not I, I will survive
For as long as I know how to love
I've got all my life to live,
and I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive, I will survive
Oh, now go, walk out the door
