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
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?
Do you think I'd crumble, d'you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I! I will survive
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
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept 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, 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 felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
Now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
Questa è la canzone più gaya che ci sia, non so per quale motivo. Ma so che io l'adoro, è come un mantra...
In fondo il tema è lo stesso di Blunotte; diciamo che in un ipotetico musical, potrebbe fare da supporto musicale alla scena successiva. La presa di coscienza è la stessa: "la situazione non è buona, ma ho finito di soffrire perché ho capito di non aver sbagliato"; in più c'è che qui è già stato subito l'abbandono, seppur con successivo ma inutile ripensamento dell'ex...
Tutto ciò mi ricorda qualcosa, ma senza malinconie.
