Survivor

Teardrops, falling from your eyes like raindrops
Pouring from the skies
Remember, you used to have the love I needed, back when we were young
Lovin' always came so easy, heaven shared our love
Magic, the first time that I held you, you fit like a glove
You'd soothe me, with a shrug of your heart you could move me
It always seemed my love would find you, when you needed a friend
I would be the man who would understand you

*But I'm not that man anymore
And I'm not gonna throw my heart away
No, that's not me anymore
Baby I've changed. *

One look is all it took to tell me your love was made of lies
Madness to think that I believed your reasons, your alibis
The day girl, when I turned to look the other way girl
I realized the game you were playin' was breakin' my heart
I can see it plainly, time has changed me

( * Repeat)
