Watching the tide rolling in
Your feeling o.k., you're feeling alright
That's when the pain rushes in, that's right
The wink of an eye, a turn of the screw
Watching the signs passing by
I was so blind, I never knew
She was changing in front of my eyes
I look away, I feel my heart beat faster
It's in her eyes, she's already gone
There's no turning back
I will survive,
I've been down on my knees too long
I will survive,
I'll get back on my feet again
I will survive,
I've been holding on too long
I will survive, I will rise up,
'cause tomorrow is already gone
Like a thief in the night,
She's slipping away
Trying to hide from the truth
She'll never say why,
She never knew when
But she's got my heart in a noose
Hide away,
She don't wanna hear that I love her
Walk away, she's already gone,
She may never come back
I will survive,
I've been down on my knees too long
I will survive,
I'll get back on my feet again
I will survive,
I've been holding on too long
I will survive, I will rise up,
'cause tomorrow is already gone
[Solo]
Look away, I feel my heart beat faster
It's in her eyes, her loving is gone
There's no turning back
I will survive,
I've been down on my knees too long
I will survive,
I'll get back on my feet again
I will survive,
I've been holding on too long
I will survive, I will rise up, I will rise up
I will survive, hm yeah, I will survive
I will survive,
I've been down on my knees,
I've been down in the dirt babe too long
I will survive, I've been holding on,
I've been holding on too long
I will survive,
I gotta, I gotta, I gotta let it go
I will survive
