Miss Independent (AOL Live)

[Intro]
Mmm

[Verse 1]
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance, mmm
Miss unafraid
Miss out of my way
Miss don't let a man interfere, no, no, no
Miss on her own
Miss almost grown
Miss never let a man help me off my throne

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So, by keeping her heart protected
She'd never ever feel rejected
I said little miss apprehensive
I said, ooh, she fell in love

[Chorus]
What is this feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open the door
Surprise (Surprise), it's timе (It's time)
To feel (To feel) what's real
What happenеd to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive
Goodbye (Goodbye), old you (Old you)
When love is true, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
Misguided heart
Miss play it smart
Miss if you wanna use that line, you better not start, no, no, oh
But she miscalculated
She didn't wanna end up jaded
And this miss decided not to miss out on true love

[Pre-Chorus 2]
So, by changing her misconceptions
She went in a new direction
And found inside, she felt a connection
She fell in love

[Chorus]
What is this feelin' takin' over? (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Thinkin' no one could open the door
Surprise (Surprise), it's time (It's time)
To feel (To feel) 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)

[Bridge]
When 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
Just how beautiful love could truly be
Just more talk of "Why can't that be me?"
I'm so glad I finally see

[Chorus]
What is this feelin' taking over? (No, no, no, no, no)
Thinkin' no one could open the door (Oh yeah)
Surprise (Surprise), it's time (It's time)
To feel (To feel) what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive (Oh yeah yeah)
Goodbye (Goodbye), old you
When love, when love is true, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

[Outro]
(Miss Independent) Miss Independent, oh yeah
