I Will Survive (Re-Recording)

At first, I was afraid, I was petrified
Thinking I couldn't live without you by my side
And after spending nights thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong, and I learned how to get along
Now, you're back from outer space

And I find you here with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock, or made you leave your key
If I'd known for a second, you'd be back to bother me

Go on, go, walk out the door
Turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble
You think I'd lay down and die

Oh, not, oh, I will survive
'Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I will survive

He took all my strength, not to fall apart
Trying with all my might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights feeling sorry for myself
How I cried
But now, I hold my head up high and you see me
Somebody new
Now, I got lonely, and of course, I'm still in love with you
Now, you come dropping in, expecting me to be free
Now, I'm saving my lovin' for someone who's loving me

Go on, and go, walk out the door
And turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble
You think I'd lay down and die

No, not, oh, I will survive
'Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I will survive

Go on, go, walk out the door
Turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble
You think I'd lay down and die

Oh, not, oh, I will survive
'Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I will survive

And you took all my strength not to fall apart
Trying with all my might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights feeling sorry for myself
How I cried
Now, I hold my head up high and you see me
Somebody new
Now I got lonely, and of course, I'm still in love with you
Now, you come dropping in, expecting me to be free
But I'm saving my lovin' for someone who's loving me

Go on, go, walk out the door
And turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Think I'd crumble
You think I'd lay down and die

Oh, not, I, I will survive
'Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
And all my love to give and l will survive
I, I, I will survive

Go on, go, walk out the door
And turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
