INTRO

At first I was afraid, I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
Thinking how you did me wrong, and I grew strong


OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
You're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock, I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second

Allemande left and weave
I will survive, I will survive
(Swing and promenade)
Oh as long as 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


FIGURE    Mainstream - SSD Week 12, corner progression

Heads (sides) square thru 4, 4 hands around
Swing thru and then the boys run right
Couples circulate one time then chain down the line
Slide thru, pass thru and then
Trade by and touch 1/4, scoot back
Swing this corner round and promenade the track
I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive, I will survive


MIDDLE BREAK    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
Go, walk out the door, just turn around now 'cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I would crumble...

Allemande left and weave the ring
Survive, I will survive
Oh as long as 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


CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
See me, somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person still in love with you
And so you felt like dropping in and just expect me to be free
And now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me

4 girls promenade
I will survive
Swing your man around and then you promenade
Alive, I've got all my life to live, I've got all my love to give
And I'll survive, I will survive

Oh yeah!
