I Will Survive Lyrics - Singles - Tamara Chauniece

At first I was afraid 

I was petrified 

Kept thinking I could never live 

without you by my side 

But then I spent so many nights 

thinking 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 lock 

I should have made you leave your key 

If I had 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 anymore 

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 

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
