I Will Survive - Intellectual

[Intro]

At first I was afraid, I was petrified

Thinkin' I could never live without you by my side

I spent so so many nights thinkin' how you did me wrong

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 have changed my stupid lock

I should have made you leave your key

If I'd have 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 break 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, and I've got all my love to give

I will survive, I will survive, hey

It took all the strength I had, not to fall apart

Kept tryin' to find the missin' pieces of my broken heart

And I spent oh so many nights feelin' 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, don't 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 break me with goodbye?

You'd think I'd crumble? You'd 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, hey hey

Hey hey, hey, badada, ah!
