Still Standing
(Orton, Bedford-Pugh)
No matter where I went, no matter what I did,
Things rarely happened as planned.
Had my share of troubles,
But I overcame them and…
Ooh, I’m still standing, here.
Ooh, I’m still standing, yes, I am.
I’ve been through fire and I’ve walked through some rainy days,
Didn’t let them bring me down.
Stuck in the shadows all broken and bruised,
But it gave me courage I found, and…
Ooh, I’m still standing, here.
Ooh, I’m still standing, yes, I am.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing…
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing…
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing… here.
I’ve got a heart so strong nothing can keep me down,
Pushed to the edge but came back.
Sometimes I wondered if I could go on,
So many times, couldn’t keep track.
Ooh, I’m still standing, here.
Ooh, I’m still standing, yes, I am.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing…
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing…
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing… here.
Looking back at my life, can’t recall all the strife,
Though I know tough times were there.
Had those days when nothing went right,
At the time it felt oh so unfair.
Ooh, I’m still standing, here.
Ooh, I’m still standing, yes, I am.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing…
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing…
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I’m still standing… here.
