I Will Survive Songtext
von Gloria Gaynor

I Will Survive Songtext

At first, I was afraid, I was petrified
Thinking I couldn′t live without you by my side
And after spendin' nights thinking how you did me wrong
I grew strong
And I learned how to get along

Now you′re back
From outer space
And I find you here
With that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
Or made you leave your key
If I'd known for a second
You'd be back to bother me


Go on, go
Walk out the door
Turn around now
You′re not welcome anymore
You′re the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I′d lay down and die?

No, not I
I will survive
Long as I know how to love, I know I'll stay alive
I′ve got all my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I, I will survive

It took all my strength not to fall apart
Trying with all my might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights, feeling sorry for myself
How I cried
But now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that lonely little person still in love with you
Now you come dropping in
Expectin′ me to be free
Now I'm saving my lovin'
For someone who′s loving me


Go on, go
Walk out the door
Turn around now
You′re not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Thinkin′ I'd crumble
Did you think I′d lay down and die?

No, not I
I will survive
Long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I′ve got my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I, I will survive

Go on, go
Walk out the door
Turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Do you think I′d crumble?
Did you think I′d lay down and die?

No, not I
I will survive
Long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I′ve got my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I, I will survive

Yeah, it took all my strength not to fall apart
Trying with all might to mend my broken heart
I spent so many nights, feeling sorry for myself
How I cried
But now I hold my head up high

And you see me, somebody new
I'm not that lonely little person still in love with you
Now you come dropping in
Expectin′ me to be free
But I'm saving my lovin′
For someone who's loving me

Go on, go
Walk out the door
And turn around now
You're not welcome anymore
You′re the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Thinkin′ I'd crumble
Did you think I′d lay down and die?

No, not I
I will survive
Long as I know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I′ve got my life to live
And all my love to give and I will survive
I, I, I, I will survive

Go on, go
Walk out the door
Don't turn around now
You′re not welcome anymore
You're the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye

Ein absoluter Klassiker - glaube da sind sich alle einig. Aber ich finde, man sollte ihn nicht zu oft hören. Nicht immer und immer wieder im Radio, es gibt ja auch noch andere gute Songs von Gloria G. Doch wenn er dann mal auf einer Party läuft gibt es kein Halten - oder die Leute haben tatsächlich grade keine Lust auf Tanzen. So ähnlich erlebe ich das jedenfalls bei meinem Job als (Pop/Rock-)Alleinunterhalter. Wenn DER Song nicht geht, geht nix!

Ich habe einen kleinen Artikel in in meinem Songblog über "I will survive" geschrieben - würde mich sehr über Eueren Kommentar dazu freuen. Welche Erinnerungen verbindet Ihr mit "I will survive"? Oder kennt Ihr den Titel vielleicht noch gar nicht so lange? Klassiker oder "kann´s nicht mehr hören"?
