I Will Survive
At first I was afraid I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live
without you by my side;
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learnt how to get along
And so you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I'd've known for just one second
you'd back to bother me
Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
('cause) you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to
hurt me with goodbye
Did I crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I. I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive;
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give and
I'll survive,
I will survive. Hey hey.
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept trying' hard to mend the pieces
of my broken heart,
And I spent oh so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself.
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
And you see me somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
still in love with you,
And so you feel like droppin' in
And just expect me to be free,
Now I'm savin' all my lovin'
for someone who's lovin' me
Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
('cause) you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to
hurt me with goodbye
Did I crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I. I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive;
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give and
I'll survive,
I will survive. Hey hey.
Kept thinkin' I could never live
without you by my side;
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learnt how to get along
And so you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I'd've known for just one second

Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
('cause) you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to

Did you think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I. I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive;
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give and
I'll survive,
I will survive. Hey hey.
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept trying' hard to mend the pieces

Oh as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive;
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give and
I'll survive,
I will survive. Hey hey.
