Jeff Scott Soto – I Will Survive lyrics
At first, I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live
Without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
But I grew strong
And I learned how to get along

And now you're back from outer space
I just walked in to 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 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 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'll survive! I will survive!
Hey, hey!

It took all the strength I had
Not to fall apart
Just trying hard to mend the pieces
Of my broken heart

And I spent, oh, so many nights
Just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high!

And you'll see me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
Still in love with you

And so you felt like droppin' in
And just expect me to be free
But now I'm savin' all my lovin'
For someone who's lovin' me!

Go now! wo! walk out the door!
Just turn around now!
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one
Who tried to 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'll survive! I will survive!

Go now! Wo! walk out the door!
Just turn around now!
'Cause you're not welcome anymore!
Weren't you the one
Who tried to 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!
And I've got all my life to live
And I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive! I will survive! I will survive!
