Survive
At first I was afraid i was petrified
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 so you're 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 had known for just one second
You'd be back to bother 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 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
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive i will survive
Her name is Océane I met her at the sea
Beautiful girl, but not in love with me
She sang a song that would
Make your eyes tear
I heard the first verse and
Forgot that I was here
And I know it's a cover
But no other does it better
Maybe Océane had a lover
But it doesn't really matter
I'm just glad that I met her
And I'm better 'cause I did
'Cause there's nothing like a good tune
To put inside your head
It took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart kept trying hard to mend
The pieces of my broken heart
And I spend, 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 chained up little person
Still in love with you
And so you feel like dropping in
And just expect me to be free
But 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 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
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive i will survive hey hey
