I Will Survive

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?
You think I'd crumble? 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
And all my love to give and I'll survive
I, I, I will survive

It 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, 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, go, walk out the door
Turn around now, you're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
You think I'd crumble? 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
And all my love to give and I'll survive
I, I, I will survive, oh

It 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, 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
