Miss independent
Miss self sufficient
Miss keep your distance,

Miss im affraid
Miss out of my way
Miss don't let a man interfere,

Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help her off her throne


So, by keepin her heart protected,
She'd never ever feel rejected

Little miss apprehensive said ooo,
She fell in love.


What is this feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open her door
Surprise, it's time

To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive

Goodbye, old you
When love is true


Miss got it hard heart
Miss play it smart
Miss if you wanna use that line you better not start, noooo

But she miscalculated
She didn't wanna end up jaded
And this miss, decided not to miss out on true love, so

By changing a misconception
She went in a new direction
And found inside, she felt a connection

She fell in love.

What is this feelin' takin' over?

Thinkin' no one could open her door (open her door)
Surprise...It's time (yeah)
To feel what's real (what's real)

What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive
Goodbye (goodbye), old you (old you)

When love, when love is true

Well, Miss Independent walked away

No time for love that came her way
She looked in the mirror and thought today
What happened to miss no longer afraid?

It took some time for her to see
How beautiful love could truly be
No more talk of "Why can't that be me?"

I'm so glad I've finally seen...

What is this feelin' takin' over?

Thinkin' no one could open her door (oh yeah)
Surprise (surprise)...It's time (yeah)
To feel (to feel) what's real

What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive
Goodbye (goodbye), old you (you)

When love, when love is true...
