At first I was afraid I was petrified
thinking I couldn't live without you by my side
spend so many nights thinking how you did me wrong
I grew stronger
I learn how to get along
now you're back from outer space
and I find you here withΒ that sad look upon your face
change stupid lock so that make you leave your key
but I have no idea for seeing you back to bother me
ohΒ I will survive
as long as I know how to love I konw I'll stay alive
I've got my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
love give me strength not fall apart
trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
spend so many nights feeling sorry for myself but I used to cry
but now I hold my head high
you see me somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
but now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
I will survive
I will survive
I've got my life to live
I've got all my love to give
now I will survive
OHHH
I will survive
OHHH
I will survive
I will survive
I will survive
I will survive
