How do I survive if you break my heart?
I'm not strong enough
Just to smile and make things easy
I can't put on my brave face anymore
I always took it for granted
That I could take whatever you gave me
I guess, you never really know for sure
'Cause there was never a doubt in mind
How it was meant to be
So who do I turn to darlin' if you should leave
How do I survive if you break my heart?
How do I survive if you break my heart?
I've got no excuses
For bein' your fool
I never thought that it would be forever
But after so much time together
I've come to depend on you
What else am I supposed to do?
'Cause there was never a doubt in mind
It wouldn't be easy
But I never realized how much you mean to me, ho
How do I survive if you break my heart?
How do I survive if you break my heart?
But there was never a doubt in mind
How it was meant to be
So who do I turn to darlin' if you should leave?
How do I survive if you break my heart?
How do I survive if you break my heart?
(How do I survive?)
How do I survive if you break my heart?
(If you break my heart)
How do I survive if you break my heart?
(Whooh, whooh)
How do I survive if you break my heart?
(How do I survive?)
How do I survive if you break my heart?
(Whooh, whooh)
How do I survive if you break my heart?
