Lyrics
I WILL SURVIVE
By Sandy Sherman &
Nancy Bryan
I know life is not a bowl of cherries
It hasn't gone the way I've planned
Chance just strikes----does what it likes
And gets the upper hand
Whenever I am stranded in confusion
Falling apart at the dreams
In the middle of doubts, my heart cries out
"It really aint as bad as it seems"
CHORUS:
I will survive
I'll keep the faith alive
And I'll get by on my own
I will survive
I'll finally arrive
At a place where I am home
I will survive.......I will survive...I will survive........I will survive
I'm drifting thru a maze of emotions
Surrounded by cold shades of blue
But I just know, there's one way to go
And there's no way out but thru
CHORUS:
And I will survive
I'll keep the faith alive
And I'll get by on my own
I will survive
I'll finally arrive
At a place where I am home
I will survive
My heart in overdrive
And I can do it alone
I will survive
I'll finally arrive
And I'll reap whatever I've sown
I will survive....I will survive....I will survive.....I will survive
BRIDGE:
I won't give up---I won't give in
I tell myself, I know I'll win
And I.....I will survive...
I'll keep the faith alive
And I will survive
My heart in overdrive
And I will reap whatever I've sown
And I will survive
