I Will Survive

I Will Survive - Westfalia Big Band

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

Thinkin' 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've changed that stupid lock

I should've made you leave your key

If I had known for just one second

You'd be back to bother me

Well go now there

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'll 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

And 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'll see me somebody new

I'm not that chained up little person

Still in love with you

And so you felt like droppin' in

And just expect me to be free

Now I'm savin' all my lovin'

For someone who's lovin' me

Go 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'll 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

Oohh

Go 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 stay alive

And I've got all my life to live

And I've got all my love to give

And I'll survive I will survive

Hey hey
