I Will Survive - 2024 Remaster

Time goes by the inch and I work it by the mile

I'm gonna have to go much faster if I'm gonna get there

I loved you with abandon, I was careless with my life

I'm gonna have to lose this heartache if I'm gonna get there

If I'm gonna get there

At first I was afraid

I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never live

Without you by my side

And then I spent so many night

Thinking how you did me wrong

And I grew strong

And I learned how to carry on

And now your back from outer space

I just walked in to find you here

With that sad look upon your face

I should've changed the lock

Should have made you leave your key

If I'd thought for just one minute

You'd be back to bother me

Alright now go

Walk out the door

Don't hang around now

You're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one

Who tried to hurt me with goodbyes

Did I stumble?

Did I break down and cry?

Oh no, not I

I will survive

Just as long as I have heart enough

You know I'll say alive

I've got all my love to live

I've got all my life to give

I will survive

I will survive

It took all the strength I had

Not to fall apart

Just trying hard to mend

The pieces of my broken heart

'Cause I spent too many night

Just feelin' sorry for myself

I used to cry

But now I hold my head up high

If you see me

With someone new

I'm not that timid little person

Whose still in love with you

So you felt like dropin' in

And you expect me to be free

But I'm savin' all my lovin'

For someone whose lovin' me

Alright now go

Walk out the door

Don't hang around now

'Cause you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one

Who tried to break me with your lies

Did I stumble?

Did I break down and die?

Oh no, not I

I will survive

As long as I have heart enough

You know I'll say alive

I got all my love to live

I've got all my life to give

I will survive

I will survive

Did you think I breakdown and die?

Or crumble, I will survive

Did you think I breakdown or crumble?

I will survive

Did you think I breakdown and die?

I will survive
