Elton John – I’m Still Standing

I love this song for so many reasons. However, I feel like it especially applies to how I have been feeling this past week. A few things tried to knock me down, and though I felt like I was going to break, I didn’t….I’m Still Standing! Thankfully I had very supportive people around to help. I’m forever grateful to my parents and my daughter who were there for me and always have my back ❤

And to those of my friends who are also struggling… this is for you too!!! ❤

I’m Still Standing by Elton John

You could never know what it’s like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there’s a cold lonely light that shines from you
You’ll 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 coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I’m still standing you just fade away

Don’t 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

Once I never could hope to win
You starting 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

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
