I'll Survive Somehow

I had a date Saturday night and let's just put it this way---he showed up wearing a Superman t-shirt!!! The EX was a huge fan of Superman--he even has a tattoo of the symbol. Really nice guy but not for me. As soon as I saw him, I chuckled to myself. He was too talkative---if that is possible for me. Nevertheless, it was a good time but not my type at all.

I went out that night with a friend and I ran into a guy that didn't know that the EX and I had broken up and I was more then fine to tell him. It didn't upset me and or anything like that at all. This guy had always been interested in me and he is a good looking guy and I would give him a chance but I can't for two reasons. First one being that it is too easy. I know that sounds really weird or a tad conceded but it is. The chase isn't there and he would treat me really well and would be great for me but it isn't there for. Number two---is Ernie. I have been thinking about him a lot lately and why I'm hesitant not to persue things with him. I realized last night that one reason is that I'm afraid to forget about things that I have to done with or shared with the EX. I also realize that Ernie won't do that---time will. The other thing I realized is that I'm just scared of being hurt so quivkly after being devasted. Plus, my love for the EX is till there.

However, this won't prevent me to continue to get to know him and see what happens.





I learned from the past
Not everything lasts
I understand that now
Everything changed
When you walked away
But I'll survive somehow
Though I have regrets
I'll learn to forget
And just keep moving on
Cause when love is gone
You have to be strong
Once touched by pain
You're not the same
But time can heal
Your heart again
So let the clouds
That bring you down
Just fade away
Away

So I try to smile
But after a while
The memories come back
But I won't give in
Cause I know that then
My heart will fade to black

And this time I learned
That love can burn
There's no right or wrong

I've got to be strong

Once touched by pain
You're not the same
But time can heal
Your heart again
So let the clouds
That bring you down
Just fade away
Away

I know that one day I'll find that feeling again
But until I do I'll do fine by myself

Once touched by pain
You're not the same
But time can heal
Your heart again
So let the clouds
That bring you down
You know that

Once touched by pain
You're not the same
But time can heal
Your heart again
So let the clouds
That bring you down
So let the clouds
That bring you down
Just fade away
Away
