Song | I Will Survive |
Artist | Nils Landgren |
Album | Sentimental Journey (Kultur Spiegel Edition) |
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, | |
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’ve changed that stupid lock, | |
I should’ve made you leave your key! | |
If I had known for just one second | |
You’d back to bother me. | |
Go on now go, walk out the door | |
And 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 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 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’s lovin’ me. | |
Go on now go, walk out the door | |
And 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! |
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, | |
