I’m Still Standing Lyrics

[Chorus]
You know I'm still standin' better than I ever did
Lookin' like a true survivor, feelin' like a little kid
And I'm still standin' after all this time
Pickin' up the pieces of my life without you on my mind


[Post-Chorus]
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Don't you know that I'm still standin' better than I ever did?
Lookin' like a true survivor, feelin' like a little kid
And I'm still standin' after all this time
Pickin' up the pieces of my life without you on my mind


[Post-Chorus]
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I'm still standin' (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

Genius Annotation

‘I’m Still Standing’ is the second single and song from Elton John’s ‘Too Low For Zero’.

Russel Mulcahy, video director of the videoclip, told us ‘I Want My MTV!’:

Elton John’s ‘I’m Still Standing’ was super, super, super gay. There was no holding back. We shot in Nice, in the south of France. My costume designer was in charge of body-painting all the boys. We had leather boys, and mimes, and kissing clowns. Bruno Tonioli, who’s a judge of Dancing with the Stars, was one of our dancers. I think he played one of the traffic policemen dressed in leg warmers and a leotard.
