At first I was afraid, I was petrified,
Kept thinkin’ I could never live without you by my side,
But then I spent so many nights thinkin’ 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 look upon your face,
I should’ve changed that stupid lock,
I should’ve made you leave your key,
If I had 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 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,
I’ll survive, I will survive,
Hey, Hey!

[Gloria Gaynor]
