[Intro]
Miss Independent
Yeah
Ooh, ooh, yeah

[Verse 1]
Miss independent
Miss self-sufficient
Miss keep your distance, uh
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'd never ever feel rejected, yes
Little miss apprehensive
Said oh, she fell in love

[Chorus]
What is the feelin' takin' over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise, it's time
To feel what's real
What happened to Miss Independent?
No longer need to be defensive, yeah
Goodbye, old you
[Verse 2]
Misguided heart
Miss play it smart
Miss if you wanna use that line, you better just 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 her misconceptions
She went in a new direction
And found inside, she felt a connection
She fell in love

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

[Verse 3]
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
No more talk of why can't that just be me
I'm so glad I finally see
[Chorus]
What is the feelin' taking over?
Thinkin' no one could open my door
Surprise (surprise), 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
When love, when love is true, yeah
Ohh, yeah

[Outro]
Miss Independent
Oh yeah
Thank y'all!
