I Will Survive Songtext

von Nils Landgren

(Reprise d′une chanson de Gloria Gaynor)

At first I was afraid I was petrified
I kept thinkin' 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 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've changed that stupid
Lock I should've made you leave your key
If I′d 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
Were′nt you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
D'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 got all my life to live
I got all my love to give
And I'll survive I will survive

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
I kept trying how to mend the pieces of my broken heart
I spent so all 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 droppin′ in and just expect me to be free
Now I′m savin' all my lovin′ for someone who is lovin' me

Go on now go walk out the door
And just turn around now cause you′re not welcome anymore
Were'nt you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
D′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 got all my life to live
I got all my love to give
And I′ll survive I will survive
