|
Did 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 will 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 (hey-hey) |
|
It took all the strength I had |
|
Not to fall apart |
|
Kept 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 |
|
Somebody new |
|
I'm not that chained up little person |
|
Still in love with you |
|
And so you felt like dropping in |
|
And just expect me to be free |
|
And 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 anymore |
|
Weren't you the one who tried to break 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 |
|
Oh as long as I know how to love |
|
I know I will 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 |
