The Survivors Lyrics

    (Aaah - Aaah)

    Cross a windy bridge one winter night
    Past Embankment Gardens enter warmth and light
    Face the music (It's never easy)
    Forget the chill
    Face the future (It's never easy)
    Find the will

    If life is worth living, it's got to be done
    One might be forgiven for thinking it's a life on the run
    Many roads will cross through many lives
    But somehow you survive

    (Oooh, aaah)

    Look around, picture what's in store
    Is this the final edit, or is the subject now a bore?
    Don't shrug your shoulders (It's always easy)
    You can't ignore

    That life is worth living, it's still worth a damn
    One might be forgiven for thinking it's something of a sham
    Many words may make it sound contrived
    But somehow we're alive

    The survivors - Our heads bowed
    The survivors - At memorials for other faces in the crowd

    Teachers and artists (It's never easy)
    And Saturday girls
    In suits or sequins (It's never easy)
    Or twinsets-and-pearls

    If life is worth living, (If life is worth living)
    It's got to be run (It's got to be run)
    As a means of giving, (As a means of giving)
    Not as a race (race) to be won (not to be won)
    Many roads will run through many lives
    But somehow we'll arrive

    (Oooh, aaah, aaah)

    Many roads will run through many lives
    But somewhere we'll survive
