i will survive

At first I was afraid, I was petrified,
I kept thinking, I could never live without you, by my side
But, then I spent so many nights,
just, thinking how you’ve done me wrong,
I grew strong, I learned how to get along

And so you’re back, from outer space,
I just walked in to find you here without that, look upon your face
I should have, changed that fucking lock,
I would have made you leave your key,
if I had known for just one second, you’d be back to bother me

[*:]
Oh, now go, walk out the door
Just turn around, now, you’re not welcome anymore
Weren’t you the one who tried to break me with desire?
Did you think I’d crumble?
Did you think I’d lay down and die?

[#:]
Oh not I, I will survive
Yeah, as long as I know how to love, I know I’ll be alive
I’ve got all my life to live, I’ve got all my love to give
I will survive, I will survive, yeah, yeah


It took all the strength I had, just, not to fall apart
I’m trying 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, with somebody new
I’m not that stupid, little, person, still in love with you
And so, you thought you’d just drop by, and you expect me to be free
But now I’m savin’, all my lovin’, for someone whose lovin’ me
