I will survive lyrics

Artist  : Jane siberry 
Song : I will survive
 
At 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 
 
So now 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`ve 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 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  
I will survive 
I will survive 
Hey hey 
 
[song stops here on Siberry version -- doesn`t
include this next verse] 
 
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 
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 feel like droppin` in 
And just 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 
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 
I will survive 
I will survive 
Hey hey
