I Will Survive

I Will Survive - Bolivar/The Connection

At first I was afraid

I was petrified

Thinkin' I could never

Live without you by my side

Then I spent so many nights

Thinking how you did me wrong

And I grew strong

And I learned how to get along

And now 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 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

'Cuz you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one

Who tried to hurt me with goodbye

You think I'd crumble

You think I'd lay right 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

Cause I've got all my life to live

And I've got all my love to give

I will survive I will survive hey hey hey

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart

Just 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

Now you see me somebody new

I'm not that chained up

Little boy who still in love with you

So you felt like dropping in

You just expect me to be free

But now I'm savin' all my lovin'

For someone who's lovin' 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

You think I'd crumble

You think I'd lay right 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

Cuz I've got all my life to live

And I've got all my love to give

I will survive I will survive hey hey hey

At first I was afraid

I was petrified

Thinkin' 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

Go on now go walk out the door

Just turn around now

'Cuz you're not welcome anymore

Weren't you the one

Who tried to hurt me with goodbye
