Lyrics I'm Still Standing

Im Still Standing is an anthem of resilience and overcoming, written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin. It was inspired by Eltons determination to continue his career in the face of personal and professional challenges, including his fight against addiction, overcoming a difficult love relationship, and media criticism.

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 a - way.

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.

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!


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! (repeat and fade to the end)
