I Will Survive

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

At first I was afraid, I was petrified

Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side

Then I spent so many nights Just 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

Go on now go, walk out the door

Just turn around now

'Coz you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes?

you think I'd crumble?

you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no not I, I will survive

For as long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive

I've got all my life to live

And I've got all my love to give

I'll survive

I will survive

Hey hey

(I, I will survive)

Hey hey

(I, I will survive)

Every day

(I, I will survive)

Oh yeah

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 see me, somebody new

I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you

And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free

But now I'm savin' all my lovin' for someone who's lovin' me

Go on now, go walk out the door

Just turn around now

You're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbyes?

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

And I've got all my love to give

I'll survive

I will survive

Hey hey

Go now, go walk out the door

Just turn around now

'Coz 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

And I've got all my love to give

I'll survive

I will survive

I will survive
