SINGER: Aretha Franklin
SONG:I Will Survive
At first i was afraid. i was petrified. i kept thinking i could never live without you by my side. but then i spent so many nights just thinking how youŽd did me wrong. i grew strong. i learned how to get along. and so youŽre back from outer space. i just walked in to find you here without that look upon your face. i should have changed that stupid lock. i should have made you leave your key if iŽd have known for just one second youŽd be back to bother me. oh now go. walk out the door. just turn around now. Žcause youŽre not welcome anymore. werenŽt you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye? did you think iŽd crumble? did you think iŽd lay down and die? oh not i. i will survive. as long as i know how to love i know iŽll be alive. iŽve got all my life to live. iŽve got all my love to give. and i will survive. i will survive. hey hey! it took all the strength i had not to fall apart. iŽm 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 youŽll see me somebody new. iŽm not that chained up little person still in love with you. and so you felt like dropping in, and you just expect me to be free. but now iŽm saving all my lovinŽ for someone whoŽs lovinŽ me. go now go. walk out the door. just turn around now. youŽre not welcome anymore. werenŽt you the one who tried to break me with goodbye? did you think iŽd crumble? did you think iŽd lay down and die? oh not i. i will survive. as long as i know how to love i know iŽll be alive. iŽve got all my life to live. iŽve got all my love to give. i will survive. i will survive
