Diana Ross - I Will Survive lyrics
[Diana Ross - I Will Survive lyrics]
This is dedicated to my girls
At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
Without you by my side
Then I spent so many nights just
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 break me with goodbyes?
You think I'd crumble?
You think I'd lay down and die?
Oh, no not I, I will survive
For as long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
And I've got all my love to give
I'll survive i will survive
Hey, hey
(I, I will survive) hey, hey
(I, I will survive) every day
(I, I will survive) oh yeah
(i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i)
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
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
But 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
You're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried
To break me with goodbyes?
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
And I've got all my love to give
I'll survive i will survive
Hey, hey
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 goodbyes?
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
And I've got all my love to give
I'll survive i will survive
I will survive
(I, I will survive) hey
(I, I will survive) every day
(I, I will survive) yeah, yeah
(i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i) oh yeah
(I, I will survive) ooh
(I, I will survive) i will survive
(I, I will survive) yeah
(i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i)
Locka-locka-locka boom boom
(I, I will survive)
I've got all my love to give
(I, I will survive)
I've got all my life to live
(I, I will survive) my living is not in vain
(i, i, i, i, i, i, i, i) oh, no, yeah, oh
(I, I will survive) i will survive
(I, I will survive) i will survive
(I, I will survive) hey
