Lyrics

Always

[Verse 1]

Hey, love

My first love

My last love

I can't stop looking for you

I'm movin'

But can't move on

Since you've gone

I don't know what to do

[Pre-Chorus]

So emotional

Can't let love go

I'm a midnight shade of blue

I've been broken in

I can't start again

Can't trade you for something new

[Chorus]

I will always love you

You will always be the one

I will always, I'll wait for you

I will always love you

You will always be the one

Know that always, I'll wait for you

[Verse 2]

Why am I

Stuck in time?

Stuck inside

While the whole world's passing me by

This old song

Keeps playing on

The melody's so strong

I can't help but sing along

[Pre-Chorus]

So emotional

Can't let love go

I'm a midnight shade of blue

I've been broken in

I can't start again

Can't trade you for something new

[Chorus]

I will always love you

You will always be the one

I will always, I'll wait for you

I will always love you

You will always be the one

Know that always, I'll wait for you

[Bridge]

I've been everywhere

No one else compares to you

Nobody here

In your stratosphere

I gotta get back to you

I'm tellin' you I wanna get back to you

[Chorus]

I will always love you

You will always be the one

I will always, I'll wait for you

I will always love you

You will always be the one

Know that always, I'll wait for you

[Outro]

Oh

Oh, oh

Hey, love

My first love

My last love

Oh
