once in a lifetime you find
someone to show you the way
someone to make your decisions
and i let you lead me astray

who did you think you were fooling
said you were missing me blind
but the truth is i knew you were lying
you were using me time after time

chorus
when the heartache is over
i know i won't be missing you missing you
won't look over my shoulder
'cause i know that i can live without you
oh live without you
oh i can live without you

time to move on with my life now
leaving the past all behind
i can make my own decisions
it was only a matter of time
sometimes i look back in anger
thinking about all the pain
but i know that i'm stronger without you
and that i'll never need you again
repeat chorus
