I will survive

(hermes house band)

First I was afraid I was petrified,
Kept 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´ve just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face.
Should I´ve changed that stupid lock,
Should I´ve made you leave your key,
If I had known for just one second you'd 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?
You´d think I'd crumble?
You´d think I'd lay down and die?
Oh no, not I. I will survive!
For oh as long as I know how to love, I know I´m still alive.
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give, and I'll survive,
I will survive!

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
Feeling sorry for myself. I used to cry,
But now I hold my head up high.
You see me, somebody new,
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you.
Now you felt like droppin' in
And expect me to be free,
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 down and die?
Oh no, not I. I will survive!
For oh as long as I know how to love, I know I´m still alive.
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give, and I'll survive,
I will survive!

Yeah, yeah!
