Always

This romeo is bleeding This Romeo is bleeding

But you can't see his blood But you cannot see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings Those feelings are nothing
That this old dog kicked up
Of this old kicked dog
It's been raining since you left me
It has been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
Now I am drowning in blood
You see I've always been a fighter
You see, I have always been a fighter.
But without you I give up
But without you, I would leave.
Now I can't sing a love song
Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way it's meant to be
The way it has to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me Well, I suppose I am no longer good.
But baby, this is me
Chorus 1
And I will love you, baby - Always And I will love you, baby, always

And I'll be there forever and a day - Always And I will be there forever and one more day, always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine I will be there until the stars no longer shine
Till the heavens burst and Until the heavens explode
The words don't rhyme And the words do not rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind I know that when I die, you will be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always And I love you, always

Verse 2 Now the figures you leave behind

Now your pictures that you left behind They are simply memories of a different life
Are just memories of a different life
Some of them made us laugh
Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry
Some of them made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye
Why did they have to say goodbye?
What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
What I would give to run my fingers through your hair
To touch your lips, to hold you near
Touch your lips, have you close
When you say your prayers try to understand
When you say your prayers, I try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
I have made mistakes, I am simply a man.
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear When he has you close, When he approaches you

I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine When he/she says the words that you want to hear
To say to you till the end of time I wish I were him, and that those words were mine.
To tell you until the end of time
Chorus 2
Yeah, I will love you baby - Always And I will love you, baby, always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always And I will be there forever and one more day, always
If you told me to cry for you, I could If you asked me to cry for you, I could.
If you told me to die for you, I would If you asked me to die for you, I could.
Take a look at my face Look at my face, there is no price I wouldn't pay
There's no price I won't pay To say these words to you
To say these words to you
 Bridge
Well, there isn't any luck Well, there will be no luck
In these loaded dice in those loaded dice
But baby if you give me just one more try But baby, if you would just give me one more chance
We can pack up our old dreams We could pack our old dreams
And our old lives
and our former lives
We'll find a place where the sun still shines
We will find a place where the sun still shines

Chorus
And I will love you, baby, always
And I will love you, baby - Always
And I will be there forever and one more day, always
And I'll be there forever and a day - Always
I will be there until the stars do not shine
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Until the heavens burst
Till the heavens burst and
And the words do not rhyme
The words don't rhyme
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind I know that when I die, you will be on my mind

And I'll love you–Always And I love you, always

 Never say goodbye

As I sit in this smoky room

Remember when we used to park

Do you remember when we used to stay up?
On Butler Street out in the dark
On Butler Street outside in the darkness
Remember when we lost the keys
Do you remember when we lost the keys?
And you lost more than that in my backseat
And you lost more than that in the back seat

Remember when we used to talk

Do you remember when we used to talk?
About busting out - we'd break their hearts
About breaking us – shattering their united hearts
Together-Forever

to keep ourselves, we have to try
Holdin' on to never say goodbye
to keep us, so we never say goodbye

Remember days of skipping school

Do you remember the days of skipping classes?
Racing cars and being cool
Running cars and being awesome
With a six pack and the radio
With a six-pack and the radio
We didn't need any place to go
We didn't need a place to go.

Remember at the prom that night

Do you remember at graduation that night
You and I had a fight
You and I had a fight
But the band played our favorite song
But the band played our favorite song.
And I held you in my arms so strong
And I held you tightly in my arms

We dance so close
We dance so close
We dance so slow
We dance so slowly
And I swore I'd never let you go And I swear I will never let you go
Together-Forever

 Bed of roses

Sitting here wasted and wounded

Sitting here worn out and hurt
At this old piano
in front of this old piano
Trying hard to capture
Trying to capture
The moment this morning I don't know
the moment of this morning, I don't know
because a bottle of vodka
Because a bottle of vodka
Is still lodged in my head
still in my head
And some blonde gave me nightmares
And a blonde brought me nightmares,
I think she's still in my bed
I think she is still in my bed.
As I dream about movies
while I dream of movies
They won't make of me when I'm dead
What will not be done about me when I am dead

With an ironclad fist I wake up and

I wake up with an iron fist
French kiss the morning
And I give a French kiss in the morning
While some marching band keeps
While a marching band continues
Its own beat in my head
at its own pace in my head,
While we're talking
While we talk,
About all of the things that I long to believe
About all the things I wish to believe,
About love and the truth and
About love, about truth and
What you mean to me
Of what you mean to me
And the truth is baby you're all that I need
And the truth is... Baby, you are all I need

I want to lay you on a bed of roses

I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
Tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
I want to be as close as the Holy Spirit is.
And lay you down on a bed of roses
And to lie down on a bed of roses

Well I'm so far away

Well, I am so far away,
That each step that I take is on my way home
that with every step I take I want it to lead me home
A king's ransom in dimes I'd given each night
a rescue from the King would give coins every night,
Just to see through this payphone
just to see through this public phone
Still I run out of time
I still have time left,
Or it's hard to get through
It's hard to wait,
Till the bird on the wire flies me back to you
until the bird that is sitting on the wire
I was flown away to you,
I'll just close my eyes and whisper,
Baby blind love is true
I will just close my eyes and whisper:
Girl, blind love is true
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails.
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is
Tonight I sleep on a bed of nails
And lay you down on a bed of roses
I want to be as close as the Holy Spirit is.
And to lie on a bed of roses
 The hotel bar hangover whiskey's gone dry The hangover in the hotel bar, the whiskey has dried up,
The barkeeper's wig is crooked. The bartender's wig is crooked,
And she's giving me the eye And she winks at me,
I might have said yeah I could have said yes,
But I laughed so hard I think I died But I laughed so much that I thought I was going to die.

When you close your eyes Oh, yes... When you close your eyes,
Know I'll be thinking about you You know that I will be thinking of you,
While my mistress calls me While my lover calls me,
To stand in her spotlight again To put myself in their spotlight again,
Tonight I won't be alone I am not going to be alone tonight,
But you know that, don't you? But you know that doesn't mean
I mean I'm not lonely, I've got nothing to prove. that I don't feel lonely
For it's you that I'd die to defend I have nothing to prove to you.
because I would die just for you to defend you
I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
For tonight I sleep on a bed of nails I want to lay you down on a bed of roses
I want to be just as close as the holy ghost is For tonight, I sleep on a bed of nails.
And lay you down on a bed of roses I want to be as close as the Holy Spirit is.
And to lie down on a bed of roses
