(Verse 1)

Miss independent

Miss self-sufficient

Miss keep your distance, mmmm



Miss unafraid

Miss out of my way

Miss don't let a man interfere, no



Miss on her own

Miss almost grown

Miss never let a man help her off her throne



So, by keeping her heart protected

She'll never, ever feel rejected

Little miss apprehensive

Said ooh, she fell in love



(Chorus)

What is this feeling taking over?

Thinking no one could open the door

Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real

What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive?

Goodbye, old you, when love, is true



(Verse 2)

Misguided heart

Miss play it smart

Miss if you wanna use that line, you better not start, no



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



(Chorus)

What is this feeling taking over?

Thinking no one could open the door

Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real

What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive?

Goodbye, old you, when love, is true (when love, is true)



(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

How beautiful love could truly be

No more talk of why can't that be me

I'm so glad I've finally seen



(Chorus)

What is this feeling taking over?

Thinking no one could open the door

Surprise, it's time, to feel what's real

What happened to miss independent's no longer need to be defensive?

Goodbye, old you, when love, is true (when love, is true)



Miss independent
