[Chorus]
A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this
Some people search forever for that one special kiss
Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this

[Verse 1]
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
I could break away

[Chorus 1]
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly
I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky
And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change
And breakaway

[verse]
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance (baby, keep your distance)
(Ah, oh, oh well)

[Verse 1]
Here's the thing, we started out friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah), since you been gone (been gone, been gone)

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I pictured me with you (me with you)
That's all you'd ever hear me say

[Chorus]
But since you been gone (since you been gone)
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah, yeah
Thanks to you, now I get, I get what I want

[Chorus 1]
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you, I am afraid

[Chorus]
Piece by piece, he collected me
Up off the ground, where you abandoned things, yeah
Piece by piece, he restored my faith
That a man can be kind and a father could stay

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You think you got the best of me
Think you've had the last laugh
Bet you think that everything good is gone (Good is gone)
Think you left me broken down (Broken down)
Think that I'll come running back (Oh)
Baby, you don't know me, 'cause you're dead wrong

[Chorus]
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
What doesn't kill you makes a fighter
Footsteps even lighter
Doesn't mean I'm over 'cause you're gone
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, stronger
Just me, myself, and I
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Stand a little taller
Doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone
When I'm alone
