Always

This Romeo is bleeding, but you can’t see his blood
It’s nothing but some feelings that this old dog kicked up
It’s been raining since you left me, now I’m drowning 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 any more, 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 til the stars don’t shine
Til the heavens burst and the words don’t rhyme
And 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
Touch your lips, to hold you near
And 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 needing to hear
I wish I was him, with these words of mine
To say to you til 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 wont’ pay
To say these words to you

Well there ain’t no love and it slowly dies
But baby, if you give me just one more try
We could 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 til the stars don’t shine
Til the heavens burst and the words don’t rhyme
And when I die you’ll be on my mind
And I’ll love you always, always
