I Will Survive (Live) - Radio Edit

At first
I was afraid
Then, I was petrified
To think that I could live without you
By my side
Then, I thought of all those nights
That you did me wrong
And I grew strong
I learned how to get along

And now you're back
From outer space
I just walked in to see that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
But, who would've thought for just one second you'd be back to bother me

Now go on now, go
Walk out the door
Don't turn around now
Because you're not welcomed anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?
But did I crumble?
Did I lay down and die?

Not I, I will survive
But as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
And I've got all my love to give
And I've got all my life to live
And I'll survive
I will survive
I will survive

It took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart
And I kept picking up the pieces
Of this broken heart
But if you thought for just one second
I'd feel sorry for myself
Then you can cry
Cause now I hold my head up high

And you see me
Yes, you see me
I'm not a chained up little person
Who's longing to be free
So if you feel like droppin' in
Don't expect too much of me
'Cause now I'm saving all my lovin'
For someone deserving me

Now go on, go
Walk out the door
Don't turn around now
Because you're not welcomed anymore
Weren't you the one who tried
To hurt me with goodbye?
But, did I crumble?
Did I lay down and die?

Not I, I will survive
Oh, as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
And I've got all my love to give
And I've got all my life to live
And I'll survive
I will survive
I will survive
I will survive
I will survive
I will survive
I will survive
