Always lyrics

This Romeo is bleedin',

but you can't see his blood.

It's nothing but some feelings

that this old dog kicked up.

It's been rainin' since you left me,

now I'm drownin' in the flood.

You see, I've always been a fighter,

but without you I give up.

Now, I can't sing a love song

like the way it's meant to be.

Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore,

but, baby, that's just me.

Yeah, I will love you, baby, always,

and I'll be there forever and a day, always.

I'll be there till the stars don't shine,

till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme.

I know when I die you'll be on my mind

and I'll love you always.

Now your pictures that you left behind

are just memories of a different life,

some that made us laugh,

some that made us cry,

one that made you have to say goodbye.

What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair,

to touch your lips, to hold you near.

When you say your prayers, try to understand

I've made mistakes, I'm just a man.

When he holds you close,

when he pulls you near,

when he says the words

you've been needin' to hear,

I wish I was him 'cause those words are mine

to say to you till the end of time.

And I will love you, baby, always,

and I'll be there forever and a day, always.

If you told me to cry for you, I could.

If you told me to die for you, I would.

Take a look at my face,

there's no price I won't pay

to say these words to you.

Well, there ain't no luck in this loaded dice,

but, baby, if you give me just one more try,

we can pack up our old dreams and our old lives.

We'll find a place where the sun still shines.

Yeah, I will love you, baby, always

and I'll be there forever and a day, always.

I'll be there till the stars don't shine,

till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme.

I know when I die you'll be on my mind

and I'll love you always, always.
