I Will Survive

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
That I spent, oh, so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along

Untill you're back
From outer space
I just walked in and find you here
With that sad look upon your face
I should've changed that stupid lock
I should've made you leave your key
If I'd known for just one second
You'd be 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 you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh, no, not I, I will survive
No, 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 will survive
I will survive, 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 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
So you felt like droppin' in
Just expect me to be free
But I'm saving my lovin'
For someone who's loving 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 you thinkin' I'd 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 will survive
I will survive
I will survive

I will survive
