I will survive

At first I was afraid, I was petrifiedThinking I could live without you by my sideAnd after spending nightsThinking how you did me wrongI grew strongAnd I learned how to get along

Now you're backFrom outer spaceAnd I find you hereWith that sad look upon your faceI should've changed that stupid lockOr made you leave your keyIf I'd've known for a secondYou'd be back to bother me

Go on, go, walk out the doorTurn around nowYou're not welcome anymoreYou're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbyeThink I'd crumble?You think I'd lay down and die?

No, not I, I will surviveLong as I know how to love, I know I'll stay aliveI've got my life to liveAnd all my love to give andI will surviveI, I, I will survive

It took all my strength not to fall apartTrying with all my might to mend my broken heartI spent so many nights feeling sorry for myselfHow I criedBut now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody newI'm not that lonely little personStill in love with youNow you come droppin' inExpectin' me to be freeNow I'm saving my lovin'For someone who's loving me

Go on and go, walk out the doorTurn around nowYou're not welcome anymoreYou're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbyeThinkin' I'd crumbleDid you think I'd lay down and die?

No, not I, I will surviveLong as I know how to love, I know I'll stay aliveI've got my life to live, and all my love to giveAnd I will surviveI, I will survive

Go on, go, walk out the doorTurn around nowYou're not welcome anymoreYou're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbyeThink I'd crumble?You think I'd lay down and die?

No, not I, I will surviveLong as I know how to loveI know I'll stay aliveI've got my life to liveAnd all my love to give andI will surviveI, I, I will survive
