I Will Survive

At first I was afraid, I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never live

Without you by my side

But then I spent so many nights

Thinking how you did me wrong

And I grew strong

And I learned how to get along

And so you're back

From outer space

I just walked in to find you here

With that sad look upon your face

I should have changed that stupid lock

I should have made you leave your key

If I had known for just one second

You'd be back to bother me

Well, 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 and break 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

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, hey, yeah

It took all the strength

I had not to fall apart

I'm trying hard to mend the pieces

Of my broken heart

Oh, and I spent so many nights

Just 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

And so you felt like dropping in

Just expect me to be free

Well, now I'm saving all my lovin'

For someone who's loving me

Go 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 and break 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

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

(I'll survive)

(We'll survive)

I will survive

Go, now go, walk out the door

Just turn around now

'Cause you're not welcome anymore

Yeah, aren'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

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

I will survive

I will survive, yeah

(I've got all my life to live)

(I've got all my love to give)

(I've got all my life to live)

(I've got all my love to give)

(I've got all my life to live)

(I've got all my love to give)

(I've got all my life to live)

(I've got all my love to give)

(I've got all my life to live)

(I've got all my love to give)

(I've got all my life to live)

(I've got all my love to give)
