I Will Survive

At first, I was afraid, I was petrified
Thinkin' I could live without you by my side
And after spendin' nights thinkin' how you did me wrong
I grew strong and I learned how to get a long

Now you're back from outer space
And I find you here with that sad look upon your face
I should've changed that stupid lock
Or made you leave your key
If I'd've 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?

No, not I, 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

It took all my strength not to fall apart
Tryin' with all my might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights feelin' sorry for myself
How I cried, but now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that lonely little person still in love with you
Now you come droppin' in, expectin' me to be free
Now I'm savin' my lovin' for someone who's lovin' 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
Thinkin' I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?

No, not I, 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?

No, not I, 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

Yeah, it took all my strength not to fall apart
Tryin' with all my might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights feelin' sorry for myself
How I cried, now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that lonely little person still in love with you
Now you come droppin' in, expectin' me to be free
But I'm savin' my lovin' for someone who's lovin' 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
Thinkin' I'd crumble, you think I'd lay down and die?

No, not I, 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
