[Verse 1]
You could never know what it's like
Your blood, like a winter, freezes just like ice
And there's a cold and lonely light that shines from you
You will wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win?
Well look at me, I'm a-coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know why I'm still standing
You just fade away
[Chorus]
And don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did?
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
And I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
[Verse 2]
Once, I never coulda hoped to win
You started down the road, leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus, you'd be a clown by now
[Chorus]
You know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
And don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did?
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
And I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
You could never know what it's like
Your blood, like a winter, freezes just like ice
And there's a cold and lonely light that shines from you
You will wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use
And did you think this fool could never win?
Well look at me, I'm a-coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know why I'm still standing
You just fade away
[Chorus]
And don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did?
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
And I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
[Verse 2]
Once, I never coulda hoped to win
You started down the road, leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus, you'd be a clown by now
[Chorus]
You know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
And don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did?
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
And I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
