I Will Survive

(Kevin Gilbert)

I will survive, I will survive

Seven o'clock and you're leaving again
I want you to stay but if you must go, why not today?
I've tried to convince and I've tried to explain
My words don't mean much when compassion is in such short supply

But if there's one thing I'm sure of
I will survive, I will survive
With all of the passion in my heart
I know I will survive, I will survive

Know I will survive, I will survive

Eleven o'clock and you're still not quite sure
Is your lingering hiss another thing that you want me to miss?
Don't ever think I'm dependent on you
I'm yours if you care, but hurt me and you won't find me there

And if you really are leaving
Maybe I'll cry, maybe I'll cry
But if there's one thing I'm sure of
I know I will survive
When all of the hurting is over
I will survive, I will survive
With all of the passion in my heart
I know I will survive, I will survive

I will survive, I will survive
I will survive, I will survive

And if you really are leaving
Maybe I'll cry, maybe I'll cry
But if there's one thing I'm sure of
I know I will survive
When all of the hurting is over
I will survive, I will survive
With all of the passion in my heart
I know I will survive, I will survive

I will survive, I will survive
Know I will, I will survive
I will survive, I will survive
I will survive, I will survive
