Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'd like to do a song that I've never sung before
You know, when I first heard this song, it made me feel very sad
But it doesn't anymore
Now it just reminds me of someone very special
And this is behind
[Verse 2]
If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way
[Verse 3]
And I will always love you
I will always love you
You
My darling, you
[Verse 4]
Mhmm
Bittersweet
Memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye
Please don't cry
We both know I'm not what you
You need
[Verse 5]
And I will always love you
I will always love you
You
[Verse 6]
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
[Verse 7]
And I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I, I will always love you
[Verse 8]
You
Darling, I love you
Oh, I'll always
I'll always love you
