At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Just thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights thinking how could it be wrong
I grew strong,
and I learned how to get along
And I learned a lot,
I was a boy
For all I was wrong is 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
It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Gave kind heart to mend the pieces of my broken heart
And I spent so many nights just feeling sorry for myself,
I used to cry But now I hold my head up high and know that I,
I will survive
For all I was wrong is 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
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
