I WILL SURVIVE by Gloria Gaynor

At first I was afraid I was petrified

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

But there I spent so many nights thinkin’ 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 look

I should have made you leave your key

If I’d've known for just one second you’d be back to bother me

Go on now

Go walk out the door

Just turn around now

Cause you’re not welcome any more

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

For 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

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart

Kept tryin’ hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart

And I spent oh so many nights just feelin' 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 droppin’ in and just expect me to be free

Well 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

Cause you’re not welcome any more

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

For 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
