Always

This romeo is bleeding, but you can’t see his blood
Its nothing but some feelings, that this old dog kicked up
Its 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 its meant to be
Well, I guess I’m not that good anymore
But baby, thats just me
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
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
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, that those words were mine
To say to you till the end of time
If you told me not cry for you, I could
If you told me not 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 aint 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
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
Always …
