Here today, gone tomorrow
Crack the bone, get to the marrow
To be a bee and the flower
Before the sweetness turns to sour
What we have we’re gonna keep, always
What we’ve lost we don’t need, always
What is it that won’t let you sleep, always
Be the arrow and the target
Put your head over the parapet
Be uncool, yes be awkward
Don’t look in the obvious place
The soul needs beauty for a soulmate
Get down off your holy cloud, always
God will not deal with the proud, always
Well if you dream then dream out loud, always
Eternally yours, always
I want you
I want you
I want you
Touch me now inside
I wanted to be a man
I wanted to call
You say you come to know yourself, always
Don't find yourself in someone else, always
And always wear a safety belt, always
Wait for me I’m running late, always
This is the moment that we share for always
Turn each song into a prayer, always
Now and forever
For always

He is the God who loves me
in my mourning
He is the One who saves me
when i turn
when i look in myself
i'll see the One because He is
He resides there in my heart
it's my will that i burn

I saw a flag wave in the heavens over me
I saw the virgin and for a moment I believed
You said you'd save me
But I don't want to be saved
I just want to be loved and to love always
I felt my lips move
But the words they were not mine
I heard you crying and for a moment
I could see
You said you'd save me but I don't want to be saved
I just want to be loved and to love always
And it's OK, I know what's confusing me
I know what I want to see
And I know where I want to be
And an angel was flying next to me
No hesitation
For a moment I was free
You said you'd save me
But I don't want to be saved
I just want to be loved and to love always

In your garden I can rest
Here I'm safe from all harm
Your face gives me comfort
Your arms give me rest
Your garden is beautiful
All I want is to be here with you
Your love is always surrounding me
Your love is always surrounding me
Your face gives me comfort
Your Arms give me rest
Your word is my foundation
Your name is alive

Fell in love with a ghost, I'm ashamed
And torn apart at the seams under the weight
Of all the truth that a lie uncovers
And all the regret that comes from one mistake
Still you say you said, that nothing's changed for you
So tell me, tell me what you're trying to prove
Don't say it's too late
Cause I need you to care, but you
Always place the blame on something you don't understand
You'll always be the same cause something's never change
Bet my fate on a chance at glory
I pulled the handle with hopes that I could fill
All the voids that a broken past brings
And strip the focus that blinded you from me
Still you say you said, that nothing's changed for you
So tell me, tell me yeah, what you're trying to prove
Don't say it's too late
Cause I need you to care, but you
Always place the blame on something you don't understand
You'll always be the same cause something's never change
Always place the blame on something you don't understand
You'll always be the same cause something's never change
They never change, yeah
Always place the blame on something you don't understand
You'll always be the same cause something's never change
Always place the blame on something you don't understand
You'll always be the same cause something's never change

She always wants what she can't have
Life is so cruel
She's always good when she's so bad
What can she do?
She's always telling me stories
Always telling me lies
She's opened up for the long run
You can tell her which shows
But she's always thinking of someone
That's how it goes
She always calls me
She's lonely
Always calls me
She needs me
Always, always, always, always, always, always
Sometimes she's more than I can take
When she shines on me with a love light
Sweet heaven above
Well body presses against mine
Warm like the shining sun
She only wishes me glory
She only wants to adore me
Always, always, always, always, always, always
Sometimes, sometimes
Always, always, always, always, always, always
Sometimes, sometimes
Always, always, always, always, always, always
She's all that I can take

Always
I can feel you.. against my skin,
I feel you...
Like the poison seeping into
Into my veins, numb with the pain
Sick and guilty
Is The sadness you've given to me...
I can feel you... Always...
I will learn too late
It's too late.. to change
It is too late..
Still these strange frustration stains
Burn my skin when nobody needs me....
This sadness.. Forced to feel
Like poison, I'll never heal
I will learn too late
It's too late.. to change
It is too late..
Still these strange frustration stains
Burn my skin when nobody needs me....
It's always, you're always
I'm always and I
I need you always.. I need you always
It's always, you're always,
I'm always and I
I'm always... Always...
Always...
I am with you always
I am with you always
I am with you always
I am with you always
Always.. Always.. Always.. Always..

Always

MONOLOGUE: I'll be loving you, babe, only always. With a real crazy love that's
true always. When these dreams that you've planned.. need a little helpin' hand,
well, say, honey, I'll understand always. Yeah, always! 'cause things may not be
fair, always. But that's exactly when I'm gonna be true always. Not for just sixty
minutes, not for twenty-four hours, not even for a whole darned YEAR, three
hundred and sixty-five days, but I mean always!!
Things may not be fair always
That's when I'll be there always
Not for just an hour
And not for just a day
Not for just a year but always

Never thought it would be this way.
But this gap between us grew, we grew two separete ways.
I never set out to tear this down, cause in my heart it's worth,
it's worth so much more, than I could ever show.
It's worth more than I can show, with words that I can't say.
The pain is wearing thin, how did this fall apart.
I'm reminded of a time, I thought you'd never slip away.
Was I to quick to run away?
You never know what you have, until it's gone away.
All I have, all I would give,
if there were some way to save this.
Always knew your name.
Some things never change.

I'll never find the words to say
How beautiful you are, my son
And everyday that this life brings
You have to know how much you're loved
Even when I'm far away
I will dream of you tonight
I will pray to God to bless your life
Always, always
As you grow and start to change
I will love you just the same
Always, always
And when you feel like giving up
I will walk you through the pain
And when you feel like life's too much
Remember Jesus is your strength
Always
There will come a day when I'll explain
All the mistakes your dad has made
I hope you see that it was Christ
And only Him that rescued me

Come and get me sucker bite down
One step more and I'll blow your head around
I ain't got nothing for you
Better believe what I'm tellin' you
I've been runnin' thru the world with a gun in my back
Never got a ride in a Cadillac
Now look out scum here I come
Down to kill like a son of a gun
You can try to tell me what is right or wrog
It so easy to see thru you
I'll do - ALWAYS - DO WHAT I WANT!
I never ever learned at school
To play their rules
Unlike all those jackass fools
Standin' blind in the line
They got their heads from the same mould
And doin' exactly as they're told
But hey that ain't for me
Still at war with apathy
Doncha try to tell me what is right or wrong
'Cuz it so easy to see thru you
[Chorus]

[Sometimes words can not say what the heart feels. Music can express the things that our language cannot.]

Did You rise the sun for me?
Or paint a million stars that I might
Know Your majesty?
Is Your voice upon the wind?
Is everything I've known marked
With my maker's fingerprints?
Breathe on me
Let me see Your face
Ever will I seek You
Chorus:
'Cause all You are, is all I want, always
Draw me close in Your arms
Oh God, I wanna be with You
Can I feel You in the rain?
Abandon all I am to have You
Capture me again
Let the earth resound with praise
Can You hear as all creation lives
To glorify one name?

Did You rise the sun for me?
Or paint a million stars that I might
Know Your majesty?
Is Your voice upon the wind?
Is everything I've known marked
With my maker's fingerprints?
Breathe on me
Let me see Your face
Ever I will seek You
Chorus:
'Cause all You are, is all I want, always
Draw me close in Your arms
Oh God, I wanna be with You
Oh with you
Can I feel You in the rain?
Abandon all I am to have You
Capture me again
Let the earth resound with praise
Can You hear as all creation lives
To glorify one name?
Breathe on me
Let me see Your face
Ever I will seek You
Chorus (x2):
'Cause all You are, is all I want, always
Draw me close in Your arms
Oh God, I wanna be with You
Oh God, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
(x2)
Oh Jesus!
'Cause all I wanna do
is just be with you
I love you Lord! I love you Lord!
Ever I will seek you... (x4)
Chorus (x2):
'Cause all You are, is all I want, always
Draw me close in Your arms
Oh God, I wanna be with You
Oh God, I wanna be with you
I wanna be with you
(x2)
Oh, Oh, Jesus

All of me
Why not take all of me
Can't you see
That I'm no good without you
Take my arms
I want to loose them
Take my lips
I'll never use them
Your goodbye
Left me with eyes that cry
And I know that I
Am no good without you
You took the part
That once was my heart
So why not take all of me
(Repeat both verses)
Why not take all of me

Should my heart ever stop
Should my breath give in
Should my mind lose it's every thought
Should the world never turn
Should this whole thing end
Should I lose every war I've fought
Whatever part of me is left after it's over
Come and hide it under under your wings
You are forever
And I am a moment
You are forever
Without you I am passing with the wind
So take me with you always
Should my body break down
Should my dreams fail
Should this freedom I know escape
Should the ones that I love
Be torn away
Should this night never turn to day

Chalk on the board and lyrics in my head
Guitar chords from The Grateful Dead
Closing my eyes and seeing the stage
Letting go of all my rage
Singing into the microphone
And suddenly I'm not feeling alone
Singing my heart out Keeping the beat
Humming the melody Tapping my feet
Emotions bursting I'm outta my seat
Mind of fast-forward, Words on repeat
Papers to be filed are still on my desk
I'm looking so organized my head's a mess
The words I hear in my head just won't fade away
They steal my concentration for the third time today
And I let go of reality and I'm playing with my band
Shaking the stadium and rocking the stand
Singing my heart out Keeping the beat
Humming the melody Tapping my feet
Emotions bursting I'm outta my seat
Mind of fast-forward, Words on repeat
Sarah's tugging at my feet "Mommy I'm so bored!"
But I don't hear her voice because I'm playing a new chord
Lips pursed, eyes shut tight, volume turned on low
Mentally singing the lyrics from 6 years ago
And snapping back to my little girl I can't believe I lost my dreams
Life never stopped for my music or at all is how it all seems
Singing my heart out Keeping the beat
Humming the melody Tapping my feet
Emotions bursting I'm outta my seat
Mind of fast-forward, Words on repeat
Paying the last of the bills on Tony's student loans
But keeping the rhythm of the Rolling Stones
I can't believe I've gotten so old and I never got to sing
Never got to sit up stage and play on my six-string
But I guess I lived through the music in my head
And long live music until well after I'm dead
Singing my heart out Keeping the beat
Humming the melody Tapping my feet
Emotions bursting I'm outta my seat
Mind of fast-forward, Words on repeat
Singing my heart out Keeping the beat
Humming the melody Tapping my feet
Emotions bursting I'm outta my seat
Mind of fast-forward, Words on repeat
Oh yeah, words always on repeat
Words always on repeat

I should've known
With a boy like you
Your middle name is always
I'd always love you
Uh-huh yeah
You let the needle drop
I think that you could do so much better
Those conventions are taking their toll on you
The phantom is disguised
It's horrifyin' right before your eyes
The phantom is inside
And i should've known
With a boy like you
Your middle name is always
I'd always want you
Uh-huh yeah
The phantom is disguised
It's horrifyin' right before your eyes
The phantom is inside
It's hideous right before your eyes
The phantom he's watchin' you
The phantom is watchin' you
You

Written by Irving Berlin
(As recorded by Patsy Cline, February 5, 1963)
I'll be loving you, always
With a love that's true, always
When the things you plan
Need a helping hand
I will understand, always, always
Days may not be fair, always
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour
Not for just a day
Not for just a year, but, always
Days may not be fair, always
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour
Not for just a day
And, not for just a year, but, always

The morning after
Still hear your laughter
Why can't we sleep always?
The party's over
I'm gettin sober
Why can't we sleep always?
You better believe - you sucker!
You better believe - you sucker!
You better believe - you sucker!
You better believe - you sucker!
Ready to softly kill my pain
Ready to slightly lose my brain
Ready to softly kill my pain
Ready to slightly go insane
And while I'm dreaming
Still hear you screaming
Why can't we sleep always?
I'm so relendless
But nothing's endless
Why can't we sleep always?
You better believe - you sucker!
You better believe - you sucker!
You better believe - you sucker!
You better believe - you sucker!
Ready to softly kill my pain
Ready to slightly lose my brain
Ready to softly kill my pain
Ready to slightly go insane

Ever stop to think if you were living in the past too long
Never miss the precious gifts
That you've been given until they're gone
All gone away
Ever stop to think if you've been living in
Another time or place
All the hopes and dreams
You had would disappear without a trace
No one would know
Until your tears start to show
Don't take it out on the world
Always
Life gets you down
Always
I'll be around
Here I am
(Here I am)
Here I'll stay
(Here I'll stay)
Always
Always
Always
Running to your rescue, I'm over you
Still I can't help myself
Thoughts that only we knew suddenly belonging somewhere else
Can't turn back time
On memories no one can find
Don't take it out on the world
Always
Life gets you down
Always
I'll be around
Here I am
(Here I am)
Here I'll stay
(Here I'll stay)
Always
Always
You'll wake up one day and wonder how the future found you
Without a world you thought would always be there
(You thought would always be there)
Suddenly those memories have left the past behind you
Didn't know when
(Suddenly)
Didn't know where
(Didn't know where)
(Didn't know where)
(Didn't know where)
(Didn't know where)
(Didn't know where)
Always
Life gets you down
Always
I'll be around
Here I am
(Here I am)
Here I'll stay
(Here I'll stay)
Always
Always
Always
Love's got you down
Don't be around
Here I am...?

Why don't you say, what's on your mind
Stop playing games, and wasting my time
'Cause we both know that for far too long
We've tried to hide that something still is going on
I still feel you when you're gone
Should I still want you if it's wrong
'Cause though I've tried, baby, my heart won't be
Can't fight what I feel
So no matter what I say,
And no matter what I do
And no matter who I love, I'm always loving you
Always, can't help myself, always, always, baby
Let's find a way, to make this last
You be my future, not just my past
'Cause it might be right, when it feels so strong
Help me find out, what the hell is going
If you promise me, you'll be loving me, exclusively
Baby, you will see, we've got endless possibilities
You can trust me baby, if I can trust you, baby

Can I have a moment of your time
And leave this far behind
Can you find the time to take a chance
Just walk with me tonight
Even though the rain must fall
Baby that will pass
Listen to the words I say
I've saved them just for you
You're safe with me tonight
And Always
As sure as this full moon
And Always
Lets sit around and shed those lonely tears
While days turn into years
Even though the rain must fall
Baby that will pass
Listen to the words I say
I've saved them just for you
You're safe with me tonight
And Always
As sure as this full moon
And Always
Nothing lasts not the good times or the bad
They all just become the past
Sometimes your heart can turn on dime
What made you cry will one day make you smile
You're safe with me tonight
And Always
As sure as this full moon
You're safe with me tonight
And Always

[Verse:]
Just sittin' thinkin' 'bout
The time when to you I vowed
My life
I wanna know do you remember
See you're my special prize
My quest for you was wise
And I just want you to know that
[Bridge 1:]
The joy you bring me
Joy you bring me
The way you tease me
The way you tease me girl so right
You stimulate me all over
For you my love pours
For you love pours
I'm loyally yours
I'm your loyal man for life
I will always be there
[Chorus:]
Always
Always
Day and night
Night and day
You see I will always be there
Be there
Be there
Never go away
Day and night
Night and day
You see I will always be there
[Verse:]
Don't you be afraid
Never doubt the things I say to you
No need to ask if I really care
I'm here to comfort you
Every morning through the night
Please believe me baby
[Bridge 2:]
You're my lova
You're my lova
Oh forever
Ani't no other girl in my life
You know you're the only one
You're my best friend
Girl you know that
On you I depend
We will stay the best of friends
I will always be there
[Chorus]
[Adlib verse: x2]
Let's take it slow
Let's make it last
I wanna love you always
Our love will never come to pass
[Chorus]
[Adlib Chorus: til the end of song]

The life you had known
The pain that you show
I count all of the times you choke
The last miracle
The emptiness of hope
When all you want is to be a stranger
The lives you recall
The things that you stole
The push backwards that makes you fall
The scars that you show
The lover that you hold
Is no more than a ghost
And I've seen the cold and the rain
And I pushed you back
Always
Don't you need it in the worst way?
Control, I need it in the worst way, babe
But if you ever come back, if you ever come back
I will let you
Always

Open your eyes I see
Your eyes are open
Wear no disguise for me
Come into the open
When it's cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame
Always
I wanna be with you
And make believe with you
And live in harmony harmony oh love
Melting the ice for me
Jump into the ocean
Hold back the tide I see
Your love in motion
When it's cold outside
Am I here in vain?
Hold on to the night
There will be no shame

I hear... a voice say "Don't be so blind"...
it's telling me all these things...
that you would probably hide...
am I... your one and only desire...
am I the reason you breathe...
or am I the reason you cry...
Always... always... always... always... always... always... always...
I just can't live without you...
I love you...
I hate you...
I can't get around you...
I breathe you...
I taste you...
I can't live without you...
I just can't take any more...
this life of solitude...
I guess that i'm out the door...
and now i'm done with you...
I feel... like you don't want me around...
I guess i'll pack all my things...
I guess i'll see you around...
Its all... been bottled up until now...
as I walk out your door...
all I hear is the sound...
Always... always... always... always... always... always... always...
I just can't live without you...
I love you...
I hate you...
I can't get around you...
I breathe you...
I taste you...
I can't live without you...
I just can't take any more...
this life of solitude...
I guess that i'm out the door...
and now i'm done with you...
I love you...
I hate you...
I can't live without you...
I left my head around your heart...
Why would you tear my world apart...
Always... always... always... always...
I see... the blood all over your hands...
does it make you feel... more like a man...
was it all... just a part of your plan...
the pistol's shakin' in my hands...
and all I hear is the sound...
I love you...
I hate you...
I can't live without you...
I breathe you...
I taste you...
I can't live without you...
I just can't take any more...
this life of solitude...
I guess that i'm out the door...
and now i'm done with you...
I love you...
I hate you...
I can't live without you...
I love you...
I hate you...
I can't live without you...
I just can't take any more...
this life of solitude...
I pick myself off the floor...
and now i'm done with you...
Always...
Always...
Always...

[M&L; - Kiske]
There is no place for me
And no one to set me free
There is no way to go
There is no place for me
Where it's warm and where I can be
At least there is no place that I know
Sometimes it's hard to see that you're running out of luck
Right now it's my own life I don't know
With everything I did I was the one who laughed
Yes I was always tall and smiled
Yes everything I did I thought would always last
And I felt always strong inside
There is no place for me
And no one to set me free
There is no way to go
There is no place for me
Where it's warm and where I can be
At least there is no place that I know
But I'm fine, I'm alright even though there's nothing left
'Cos what it means I'm sure will show
Somewhere along the way I lost the key for it
But I was always true inside
Somewhere inside myself I'm praying for a bit
Of what was always open wide
When I look around there's only broken glass I see
And everywhere I reach it's hurting me
Looking back I find there was not much how it should be
It's slowly killing me!
I got to go, kick all dust off my shoes
Take all that's good inside and turn it 'round
'Cos with everything I did I was the one who laughed
Yes I was always tall and smiled
Yes everything I did I thought would always last
And I felt always strong inside

I'll be lovin' you, always
With a love that's true, always
When the things you've planned need a helpin' hand
I will understand always, always
Days may not be fair, always
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour, not for just a day
Not for just a year, but always
Days may not be fair, always
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour, not just a day
Not for just one year but always
Always
Always
All the time

Always And forever
each monet with you
is just like a dream to me
that somehow came true
and i know tomorrwo
will still be the same
cuz we got a life of love that
wont ever change
Chorous
Everyday love me
your won special way
melt all my heart
with a smile
take time to tell me
you really care
and we'll share tomorrow
together always forever love you
Ill always love you forevver
ever ever evr
baby

what were you thinking
i got a right to ask
is there a reason
other than your past
a great pretender
why was i the last to see
through your SKIN
is there a chance you'll ever change
it's always the same
you're always to blame
is there any way around this
i can't see
you walked out on her
you planned to be free
i'm trying not to point the finger
but it's killing me
what were you thinking
were you thinking of me
did you see what they wrote
on the family tree
i know it's over
all in the past
i need to forgive you?
if i'm to last - will i ever change
take these pieces
thrown away
put them together from
night 'n' day
washed by the sun
dried by the rain
to be my father
in the fatherless days

I finally found a way
To make it go away
Make all the things I say be cleverly stated
And I move away from here
And hardly ever turn my back
That works for miles and miles cause I'm wasted
Maybe I
Baby I lied
But I'm much bigger than that now
I'm waking to your knees shaking
The whole towns quaking from the love we've been making
I learn to forget
It's so hard to forget
Like when that hair was wet(it's so hard to forget)
Maybe I
Oh baby I lied
But I'm much bigger than that now
I'm wasted
And she's wasted
She's wasted
Maybe I
Oh baby I lied
But I'm much bigger than that now
No one cares
See the damage that we did
Are we much bigger than that now?
Are we much bigger than that now?
Are we much bigger than that now?
cause I'm much bigger than that now
I'm much bigger than that now

I'll be loving you always with a love that's true always
When the things you've planned need a helping hand
I will understand always always
Days may not be fair always that's when I'll be there always
Not for just an hour not for just a day
Not for just a year but always
[ horn ]
Always always oh always
Days may not be fair always...

Tables turned again
And you my friend
You and I face each other
Oh time and time out
I know it's sometimes hard
But knowing just oh
That we will get along
Til we're old and gray
And doubled up
We're doubled up, we'll sit
And think of times were hard
And laugh of times when we thought
All it would end, it was all over
Then again
And know that I'm yours 'less rain'
And to leave you out, I'll die
Oh my friend
It will be you until the end with me
Always
Always...
**********
share the time again
I spend with you
a friend is always good to have
but a lovers kiss is better than angels raining down at me
I dream of you at times when your by my side
dream you're not just like you are
so troubled and doubling my pain
just one more tear
you shed for me
I wish that I could climb inside your mind
and spend some time and hug and hold you
and mold you into what I'd like
but no I can't do this
just a kiss to spend a while by you
and your familiar smile and voice
I lay awake
then you lean back and smiling
on you
most everything you do for me, I say
and the while let's make our way
and feel warm
in the middle of this storm with you
love and (?)
angel
oh the friends they say wow she's good and wow she's right
I say
when you were again
and you were my friend
before the lie
this one
say yes I do
and with you
sometimes
but while I do my best
with all the rest I leave to you
can't wait for the hour
and when two things become this
all this trouble from a kiss from you, I'll do it
and then you come up smiling
and I'm thrown
into I get a little storm with you, I'll do it
always
lover, line up and yeah
the road to you is long and I've been on it for a while
and a need a warm embrace
I'll take a break
and say I want to leave you awake (wait?)
always
and you are
time, give it
I feel
tired...

You wipe the tears away
You say you'll be here darling
Always
But always is a long long time
And time can change so much
I want to stay with you
Always
Oh the gifts that you bring
Darling you have given me
The joy of living
In every way
After all this time
Things haven't changed so much
I want to stay with you
Always
You still say I love you
Always

Verse 1:You know I had some lonely days
I made mistakes and had to pay
I had some friends that walked away
Just like mama told me
But there's someone who's love is real
Who cares about the way I feel (I know you feel)
Every pain that erased every stain
there's peace when I call out your name
Chorus 1:Jesus your my every thing
the cross you did that just for me
for every time you brought me through
I promise you
I'll spend my always with you
verse 2: No one can touch my heart like you
or make me smile the way you do
I finally found someone who
Who really truly loves me
But when my strength has come and gone
Your life in me it makes me strong
Your hand is where my heart belongs
You took all my pain
and erased every stain
Chorus 1:
Chorus 2: Jesus my whole life has changed
since that day I cried your name
For everytime you brought me through
I promise you
I'll spend my always with you.

I remember a time when temptation was mine
when salvation was blind, divine
The came the lies, and the truth were denied
so I lost the faith, escaped
Thats why I'm never going home
never ever going back where I belong
Always running on the same trail of pain
never ever turning back to be the same..

Given up to me
You're living - rotting in my dream
Morning lights to red
I think I've had too much already
So violently to touch, it's tearing me up
So beautifully to clutch, I'm feeling so weak
So violently to touch, you're everything
So violently to touch
Because you're always slipping away
Because you're always slipping away from me
Always slipping away
Because you're always slipping away from me
Aimless misery
Things aren't always what they seem
Anger lay to rest
I've never been the one to follow
So violently to touch, it's tearing me down
So beautifuully to clutch is what you believe
So violently to touch, I'm anything
So violently to touch
Because you're always slipping away
Because you're always slipping away from me
Always slipping away
Because you're always slipping away from me
Not a memory
Your cup of life is overflowing
There to catch the fall
Bending down to kiss the sorrow
So silently to touch, it's tearing me down
Innocently to clutch, I'm feeling so weak
So violently to touch, I'm anything
So violently to touch
Because you're always slipping away
Because you're always slipping away from me
Always slipping away

It's just the way you...
Way that you're standing there
Unaware
So long I have had dreams
Can't keep my eyes off you
Off of you
Stand still I just want this moment with you
You're so beautiful
And I am lost here in your eyes (Those eyes)
To feel you here in my arms
No place that I'd rather be
Be than right here with you, next to me
Stand still I just want this moment with you
You're so beautiful
And I am lost here in your eyes (Those eyes)
If you could only see through my eyes
You'd know I'd die for you (die for you)
Right now nothing could take this, this moment
To taste your lips here on mine
Your skin is so silky soft.
Don't want to let you go
Because you're mine
Stand still I just want this moment with you
You're so beautiful
And I am lost here in your eyes (Those eyes)
If you could only see through my eyes
You'd know I'd die for you (die for you)
Right now nothing could take this, this moment
(The thought)
It's the thought of losing you
Remind how much I am with you
It's the thought of losing you
And now were standing here
I promise you.... Always
If you could only see through my eyes
You'd know I'd die for you (die for you)
Right now nothing could take this, this moment
If you could only see through my eyes
You'd know I'd die for you (die for you)
Right now nothing could take this, this moment

Always

minutes, not for twenty-four hours, not even for a whole darned YEAR, three
hundred and sixty-five days, but I mean always!!
Things may not be fair always
That's when I'll be there always
Not for just an hour
And not for just a day
Not for just a year but always

{this intro is not used in the ella version; it’s included here for completeness}
Intro:
Everything went wrong,
And the whole day long
I’d feel so blue.
For the longest while
I’d forget to smile,
Then I met you.
Now that my blue days have passed,
Now that I’ve found you at last -
{end intro}
I’ll be loving you always
With a love that’s true always.
When the things you’ve planned
Need a helping hand,
I will understand always.
Always.
Days may not be fair always,
That’s when I’ll be there always.
Not for just an hour,
Not for just a day,
Not for just a year,
But always.
I’ll be loving you, oh always
With a love that’s true always.
When the things you’ve planned
Need a helping hand,
I will understand always.
Always.
Days may not be fair always,
That’s when I’ll be there always.
Not for just an hour,
Not for just a day,
Not for just a year,
But always.
Not for just an hour,
Not for just a day,
Not for just a year,
But always.

I saw a flag wave heavy over me
I saw the Virgin
For a moment, I believed
You said you'd save me
But I don't want to be saved
I just want to be loved
And to love always
I felt my lips move
But the words they were not mine
I saw you crying
For a moment I could see
You said you'd save me
But I don't want to be saved, no no
I just want to be loved
And to love always
You said you'd save me
But I don't want to be saved, no no
I just want to be loved
And to love always
Yeah, and it's okay
Well, I know what's confusing me
I know what I want to see
I know where I want to be
Then an angel was flying next to me
No hesitation
For a moment I was free
You said you'd save me
But I don't want to be saved
I just want to be loved
And to love always
All I want is to be loved
And to love always, always
I just want to be loved
And to love always

Girl you are to me
All that a woman should be
And I dedicate my life to you, always
A love like yours is rare
It must have been sent from up above
And I know you'll stay this way for, always
BRIDGE
And we both know
That our love will grow
And forever, it will be
You and me
CHORUS
Ooh, you're like the sun
Chasing all the rain away
When you come around
You bring brighter days
You're the perfect one
For me, and you forever will be
And I will love you so for, always
Come with me my sweet
Let's go make a family
And they will bring us joy for always
Oh boy I love you so
Can't find enough ways to let you know
But you can be sure I'm yours, for always
BRIDGE(REPEAT)
CHORUS (REPEAT)

I can see hills touch the sky
Heaven and earth, you and I
A world we will always be
Here in the silence we lie
Shadows we cast, you and I
Speak for eternity
(Chorus)
Pressed between pages
Flowers will die
Stories may end as time passes by
You and I will always be
With every word that I hear
Whenever whispers are near
I can believe in fate
Promises made, only one
Yesterday fades from the sun
And falls to a new embrace
Years overflow
As rivers run dry
Here in a moment of time passing by
You and I will always be, will always be
(Chorus)

Always here for you
I'll be there for you
I know we'll make it through
What you heard about me is true
But that doesn't mean
I won't be true to you
My love for you will last, my friend
All the way to the very end
Always here for you
'Cause I know we'll make it through
You're my dream come true boy
You're just everything I'm wishing for
To what we have we're still holding on
Don't give up on me, it won't be long
I'll always be here for you anytime
I'm gonna show the world that you are mine
Always here for you...
Other couples comes and goes
That's not us no, no, no
We're walking on a higher ground
I wish that you could see
This love was meant to be
I'll always be there
Always be there for you
Always there for you...
This song is for all the lovers out there!

My wish is...
My.. my wish is...
My wish is....
My wish is, I hope to do for you
All that you've done, because all that you do it's like magic
Your amazing me, a diamond for free
Your as real as can be and to keep you, I'd give up everything I own
The mic and my life just don't leave me alone you're my partner
I want you to see, no matter how bad things in life can be
You've always got me
You've always got me
Now you trust me, I carry that so tight
I'll be there for you, if your wrong or your right
It doesn't matter, just reach out to me
I will never question, any opportunity to show you
And prove to you that I care, always you share and you've always been there
Your my best friend, it's easy to see
No matter how bad things in life can be..
You've always got me
You've always got me
My wish is, I hope to do for you
All that you've done, because all that you do it's like magic
Your amazing me, a diamond for free, your as real as can be
And you have always got me
You've always got me
You've always got me

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 anymore
But baby, that's just me
And 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
And 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 needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time
Yeah, 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 these 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
And 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
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always

You got me jumpin' like a cat strung up on a wire
Waiting for the sandman to put me to sleep
I got a no show take it slow waiting for the whistle blow
No where job on a dead end street
You ain't got a minute when the siren sounds
Gotta get movin' to the underground
But I gotta woman gonna love me through the night
Slippin' and slidin' and holding me tight
Well here it comes again another Saturday night
Pour another drink I hope I make it home allright
Oh boy oh boy gotta keep headin' for the state line
Makin' time gotta meet a friend of mine
My old Ford runs fine I gotta say
Got a new set of plugs I wish the rain would go away
A hundred U.F.O.'s by the Holiday Inn
I should really go to sleep but baby here I go again
Well take me the hotel no one's there oh well
Whatever happened to news on the radio
Every little place in this little town
Looks like a bomb just leveled to the ground
Drivin' through Jersey headed for D.C.
look at all the boarded up factories
All the kings men have a summerhouse in France
But you and me live on the radiation ranch

I have been living
I have been fooled
I have been many things but I've always been in love with you
I have been travelling
Eating life's food
Though I've been far away
I have still remained in love with you
I've been given a chance to share my music with the world
Soon my song will be over
'Till I sing the song of love
For me and you
I've been sharing with the world my songs of love
Well baby I have been learning
I have been used
I have been sheltering within this plenty world of love I share with you
I've been given the answer
I've been given words of love
I've been given the reason
And the reason I've been sharing with the world
I've been sharing with the world my songs of love
That's why I'll always be in love
I will always be in love
I will always be in love with you
Always be in love
I will always be in love
I will always be in love with you

Always
Written By: Antoine Sicotte / Anastasia Friedman
Let me tell ya a story about a lady
Who is strong willed and courageous
She's my inspiration
The foot hill of los andes
She grew up 'til they stole away her dreams
And so she had to flee
Life is too short she thought
I know I'll make it
Always
To the new world
I know I can make my home
'Cause every day I'm getting closer
Always
To my destination that's where I will go
Here we are
Twenty and some gone by
You worked hard all your life
And I wrote this song for I
Always
Will be proud of who I am
So mama
Don't be tempted to be saddened by what they might say
Always
To the high, look forward
Don't look back, I'm thankful
'Cause you taught me to bring out the best in me
Every time I'm feeling
Frustrated or uneasy
I know I can count on her love and her affection
Like the sun she warms me
In her arms I'm cradled
Like a new born baby
With her I can surrender
In this life she said
You'll fail then you will grow
Always
Just remember who you are
You're not alone
And every day you're getting closer
Always
To your destination that's where you belong

I've been here before a few times
And I'm quite aware we're dying
And your hands they shake with goodbyes
And I'll take you back if you'd have me
So here I am I'm trying
So here I am are you ready
Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you
Always
Kiss you, taste you all night
Always
And I'll miss your laugh your smile
I'll admit I'm wrong if you'd tell me
I'm so sick of fights, I hate them
Lets start this again for real
So here I am I'm trying
So here I am are you ready
So here I am I'm trying
So here I am are you ready
Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you
Always
Kiss you taste you all night
Always
(Come on let me hold you) Touch you, feel you
Always
Kiss you, taste you all night
Always
I've been here before a few times
And I'm quite aware we're dying
Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you
Always
Kiss you, taste you all night
Always
(Come on let me hold you) Touch you, feel you
Always
Kiss you, taste you all night
Always
Always..
Always..

"Sometimes words can not say what the heart feels.
Music can express the things our language cannot."

So you got it figured out now
Yeah, you got a guarantee
I'm hoping when you hit the bottom
You'll forgive me
Now just sit back and take a number
Wait for yours to tumble up
Too young to care and too old to try so
You just give up
But its not always
What you wanted it to be
Its not always
What you need
God I wish that I could be awake
For the final round
And I know where you'll be standing
When I'm knocked down
And it's not always
What you wanted it to be
It's not always
What you need

(By Irving Berlin)
(Oh friends, ... don't matter if you're a man or a woman.
If you're in love with somebody,
these are the words that you got to learn to say.
Now listen carefully. Here it comes...)
I'll be loving you always
with a love that's true, always
When the thing you've planned
needs my helping hand,
I will understand, always, always
Days may not be fair, always
Yeah but that's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour,
Not for just a day,
Not for just a year, but always.
I said that I'll be loving you, always
with a love that's true, always.
When the thing you've planned
needs my helping hand,
I will, I will understand, always, always
(Oh that's pretty ... that's pretty too ... Oh darling)
The days may not be fair, always
Yeah but that's when I'll be there, always
Not for just a second, or a minute, or an hour,
Not for just a weekend and a shake down in the shower,
Not for just the summer and the winter going sour,
But always, always, always
(Ok if you don't want to quit, let's try it one more time)
I'll be loving you, always
with a love that's true, always.
When the thing you've planned
needs my helping hand,
I will understand, I will, I will understand, always, always
The days may not be fair, always
(Don't worry, baby)
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour,
Not for just a day,
Not for just a year, but always.

Every morning
Now I pray
The phantom pains
Not to come again
A million tears
To slip away
And take the vessel
Of my blame
We have got to brave the storm
The people who do us harm
I will never walk alone
The pavement of this bitter town
Us forever breaking hearts
Breaking rules and making fools
Forever having have to hold
The key that takes me to your soul
Always feel the loner
On the outside looking in
Always fall the victim
Of the seven deadly sins
Saviour, Sinner, Dreamer, Fool
They howl from the balconies
I just have to laugh and say
Well this is my kind of ecstasy
Us forever breaking hearts
Breaking rules and making fools
Forever having have to hold
The key that takes me to your soul
Smiles may come and go
But how I love you when you cry
Baby you're the arrow
Through the apple of my eye
Us forever breaking hearts
Breaking rules and making fools
Forever having have to hold
The key that takes me to your soul
To your soul
Always and always

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
And I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you, I give up
Roger:
Now I can't sing this 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
And I will love you baby...Always
And I'll be there forever and a day...Always
Lee and Phil:
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 love you always...baby
Phil:
Now the pictures that you left behind

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

I've made mistakes, I'm just a man
Lee:
When he holds you close, when he pulls you near
When he says the words you've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him, and the words are mine
To say till the end of time
All:
Yeah I will love you baby always...
And I'll be there, forever and a day...always
Roger and Phil:
If you told me to cry for you, I could
If you told me to lie for you, I would
Take a look at my face, there's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you
Lee:
Well there ain't no luck in these 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

Racing down the alleyways
the summers here I hope she stays forever
winter froze the pond this year
with spiky rain
in silence from the fall
the sky has turned to cellophane
this is the best time of the year
I held you on the longest day
to make the most
to make it stay
always

C: What do u do
What do u say
When the time cant
be replaced
Moments are real
Wish I was still
living yesterday
Where do I go
What do I do
When everything has changed
Know that its real
Way that I feel
I'll carry this love
with me Always
Came home from where I've been
But will it ever be again
Everytime I remannince my heart
is filled with joy
If only i could paint my face
I would color me in to stay
Sometimes life brings u no choice
C:x1
Dont know wuts best for me
but i know my heart
will never leave
cause under neath this
sky I'll always have a
place to call home
Something bout this love
I found
It makes me see the
world diffrentley
What can measure the ways
that I've grown
C:x1
I've become so much more
a person that i'de never
thought i could be
First time that i found
a true heart of me
C:'till end

Let's go back to the start
Like it use to be
Before you fell apart
And you blamed it on me
Back when you were my friend
Do you remember back then
All the plans that we made
Can we get back to those days
Those days come every now and again
No way I feel like this is the end but
Always is in your eyes
In always I realize
That always is you and I
Always
Let's go back to the start
Like it use to be
Before your broken heart
And your hatred for me
Back when all this began
Do you remember back then
All the plans that we made
Can we get back to those days
Always is in your eyes
In always I realize
That always is you and I
Always
Is there any wonder I'm not right
Where do we go now where do we go now
Is there any wonder you wont fight
Where do we go now where do we go now
Have there been to many wrongs to right
I'd say goodbye but
Always is in your eyes
In always I realize
That always is you and I
Always

Always, send your love to me softly.
Sweetly, turn the pages on always.
In the night, I was born
Lived a new, summer 'morn.
Always, send you love, come to me.
Cause I was destined to be.
Always, rue the day that I loved you.
Sweetness, came on down from above you.
In the night, I was born.
Lived a new summer 'morn.
Always, send you love, come to me.
Cause I was destined to be.
No control in your arms.
Letting go, I hope
You cope,
With me tonight.
(Viola solo)
In the night, I was born.
Lived a new summer 'morn.
Always, send your love, come to me.
Cause I was destined to be.

I know that you feel like leavin'
We can't seem to get along
I know you are the only one for me
My everything
You are all that a girl could wish for
I couldn't ask for more
We don't need to argue about silly things
Anymore
Remember all of the good times
Think about it for awhile
I would be incomplete without you in my life
Tell me
You can't leave
You will always be a part of me, baby
Wherever you go
You will always be a part of me
Always
Sometimes we say things we don't mean
Like we should go our separate ways
Not considering the love and time that we shared together
I be feeling like you're really afraid
To love me as I love you
Let me live inside of your love freely, yeah
Remember all of the good times
Think about it for awhile
I would be incomplete without you in my life
Tell me
You can't leave
You will always be a part of me, baby
Wherever you go
You will always be a part of me
Always
Tell me
You can't leave
You will always be a part of me, baby
Wherever you go
You will always be a part of me
Always
At night I wish upon a star
And hope that you are near, not far
And that you are loving me
Always
And when I lay me down to sleep
I pray that our love will always keep
And that you are loving me, yeah
Don't ever let me go, oh babe
Always
Without you there is no me
What am I suppose to do, tell me
Tell me
You can't leave
You will always be a part of me, baby
Wherever you go
You will always be a part of me
Always
Tell me
You can't leave
You will always be a part of me, baby
Wherever you go
You will always be a part of me
Always
Tell me
You can't leave
You will always be a part of me, baby
Wherever you go
You will always be a part of me
Always
I'm sorry
Give me one night of holding you close, baby
Oh yeah (Always)

Ev'rything went wrong
And the whole day long
I'd feel so blue
For the longest while
I forgot to smile
Then I met you
Now that my blue days have passed
Now that I've found you at last
I'll be loving you, always
With a love that's true, always
When the things you've planned
Need a helping hand
I will understand
Always, always
Days may not be fair, always
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour
Not for just a day
Not for just a year
But always
Dreams will all come true
Growing old with you
And time will fly
Caring each day more
Than the day before
Till spring rolls by
Then when the springtme has gone
Then will my love linger on

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 anymore
But baby, that's just me
And 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
And 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 needing to hear
I'll wish I was him 'cause those words are mine
To say to you till the end of time
Yeah, 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 these 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
And 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
And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always
