Oh dear, my old thread locked up. Sorry Job! Thank you all for your replies; I will try to consolidate them in a post soon. But in the meanwhile, here is my song for my new thread, a song that Portia and I have been singing about our selves, right Portia?

My new mantra: "I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me" and with whom I do NOT have to STFU! smile

"I will Survive"

It took all the strength I had not to fall apart
Just trying hard to mend the pieces of my broken heart

And I spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry but now I hold my head up high
And you see in 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
but now I'm saving all my loving for someone who's loving me

Oh now go, walk out the door
Just turn around now
cause you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried
to break me with goodbye?
Did you think I'd crumble?
Did you think I'd lay down and die?

Oh no not I, 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 and I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive...I will survive


My old thread: It is well with my soul
