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

* 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)

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

[Repeat *]

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

[Repeat *]
