I Will Survive
At first I was afraid, I was petrifiedKept thinkin' I could never live without you by my sideThen I spent so many nights Just thinking how you did me wrongAnd I grew strongAnd I learned how to get along
And so you're back from outer spaceI just walked in to find you here, with that sad look upon your faceI should have changed that stupid lockI should have made you leave your keyIf I had known for just one second you'd be back to bother me
Go on now go, walk out the doorJust turn around now'Coz you're not welcome anymoreWeren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes?you think I'd crumble?you think I'd lay down and die?Oh no not I, I will surviveFor as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay aliveI've got all my life to liveAnd I've got all my love to giveI'll surviveI will surviveHey hey
(I, I will survive)Hey hey(I, I will survive)Every day(I, I will survive)Oh yeah
It took all the strength I had not to fall apartJust trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heartAnd I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myselfI used to cry, but now I hold my head up highAnd you see me, somebody newI'm not that chained up little person still in love with youAnd so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be freeBut now I'm savin' all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me
Go on now, go walk out the doorJust turn around nowYou're not welcome anymoreWeren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes?you think I'd crumble?Did you think I'd lay down and die?Oh no not I, I will surviveOh as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay aliveI've got all my life to liveAnd I've got all my love to giveI'll surviveI will surviveHey hey
Go now, go walk out the doorJust turn around now'Coz you're not welcome anymoreWeren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?Did you think I'd crumble?Did you think I'd lay down and die?Oh no not I, I will surviveOh as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay aliveI've got all my life to liveAnd I've got all my love to giveI'll surviveI will surviveI will survive
