"You Will Survive (The Gloria Gaynor chestnut presented in the 2nd person)"

"You Will Survive (The Gloria Gaynor chestnut presented in the 2nd person)"
by Freddie Perren and Dino Fekaris.pronouns by Mark Allender


First you're afraid

You're petrified

Kept thinking you could never live

without him by your side

But you spent so many nights

thinking how he did you wrong

You grew strong

You learned how to carry on


And so he's back

from outer space
You just walk in to find him there
with that sad look upon his face
You should have changed your stupid lock
You should have made him leave his key
If you'd've known for just one second
he'd be back to bother thee

Tell him to go walk out the door
he should turn around now
'cause he's not welcome anymore
wasn't he the one who tried to hurt you with goodbye
he thought you'd crumble
he thought you'd lay down and die
Oh no, not you
You will survive
as long as you know how to love
You know you'll stay alive
You've got all your life to live
You've got all your love to give
and you'll survive
You will survive

It took all the strength you had
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of your broken heart
and you spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for yerself
You used to cry
Now you hold your head up high
and he sees you
just on a whim
You're not that chained up little person
still in love with him
and so he felt like dropping in
just he always used to
now you're saving all your loving
for someone who's loving you
