IZA - I Will Survive Lyrics

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights 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'd known for just one second you'd be back to bother me

Well 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?
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
I'm trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart
Oh, and I spent 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 and still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in, just expect me to be free
But now I'm saving all my love for someone who's loving me

Go on now, go, walk out the door
Just turn it around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
Do you think I'd crumble?
Do you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh, 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
(I will survive) I will survive

Go now, go, walk out the door
Just turn around now
'Cause you're not welcome anymore
Were not you the one who tried to break me with goodbye?
Do you think I'd crumble?
Do 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
I will survive
I will survive

I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
