Lyrics Always

Always was written by Jon Bon Jovi for the soundtrack of the movie Romeo Is Bleeding, but it was not used in the film. Despite this, it was later included in the 1994 compilation Cross Road and became one of Bon Jovis biggest hits, receiving global acclaim.

 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
Al - ways
And I'll be there forever and a day
Al - ways
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'll love you
Al - ways

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

And I will love you, baby
Al - ways
And I'll be there forever and a day
Al - ways

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
Al - ways
And I'll be there forever and a day
Al - ways
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'll love you
Al - ways

Always
