I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor..

 

 

 

 I Will Survive - Gloria Gaynor..     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
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'll survive. It took all the strength I had not to fallen apart;
kept tryin'
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 droppin' in
and just expect me to be free.
Well now,
I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving 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'll survive.
