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 Yeah 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 'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme I know when I die you'll be on my mind And I'll love you, always Now your picture's 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'll wish I was him 'Cause these words are mine, to say to you 'Til 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 Yeah 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 'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme I know when I die you'll be on my mind And I'll love you, always Always
