I Will Survive

Future tense


At first, I was afraid, I was petrified


Kept thinking, I could never __________  without you by my side
But then I spent so many __________  thinking, how you did me wrong
And I grew __________  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  __________   changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave  __________  key
If I'd 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
And I'll survive, I will survive, hey, hey
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Kept trying hard to  __________    the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent, oh, so  __________   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 dropping in and just  __________   me to be free
But now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me
Go on now, go, 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 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, oh
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   __________  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, I will survive
