THE SUVIVOR SONG
(written for breast cancer survivor event)
Lisa Vincent, songwriter


(Intro)
As we go about our day
Never knowing what will be
The unexpected comes our way
And we must face adversity

(Verse)
No this cannot be true
As I ask, Why me?
Oh what will I do
No this just can't be happening

Now I feel so darn tired
As I wake to face the day
Well I must be inspired
So this is what I say

(Chorus)
Stand up, stand tall!
Even if I fall
Reach out, reach high!
I can, I will
Survive

(Verse)

As I walk along
I see above the clouds
The sun keeps shinning on
Refusing to fade out

Oh this beautiful site
Will I ever see again?
Well I just might
If I don't give in

(Bridge)
And some days I will hurt
And some days I will cry
But with faith, hope and love
I know I'll survive

(Verse)
With help from those who care
I will win this fight
Then I'll be more aware
Of the value of life

(Chorus)
Stand up, stand tall!
Even if you fall
Reach out, reach high!
You can, you will, survive

Stand up, stand tall
Even if we fall!
Reach out, reach high
We can, we will survive!
