I Will Survive (Remastered 2022)

At first, I was afraid, I was petrified

Thinking I couldn't live without you by my side

And after spending nights thinking how you did me wrong

I grew strong, and I learned how to get along

Now you're back from outer space

And I find you here with that sad look upon your face

I should have changed that stupid lock, or made you leave your key

If I'd known for a second, you'd be back to bother me

Go on, go, walk out the door

Turn around now, you're not welcome anymore

You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?

You think I'd crumble? You think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no, not I, I will survive

Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive

I've got all my life to live

And all my love to give and I will survive

I, I, I will survive

It took all my strength not to fall apart

Trying with all my might to mend my broken heart

I spent so many nights feeling sorry for myself

How I cried, but now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody new

Now I got lonely, of course, I'm still in love with you

Now you come dropping in, expecting me to be free

Now I'm saving my lovin' for someone who's loving me

Go on, go, walk out the door

Turn around now, you're not welcome anymore

You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye?

You think I'd crumble? 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 all my love to give and I will survive

I, I, I will survive, oh

It took all my strength not to fall apart

Trying with all my might to mend my broken heart

I spent so many nights feeling sorry for myself

How I cried, now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody new

Now I got lonely, of course, I'm still in love with you

Now you come dropping in, expecting me to be free

But I'm saving my lovin' for someone who's loving me

Go on, go
