Lyrics

{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.

~ SOLO ~

Days may not be fair always,

But that's when I'll be there always.

Not for just an hour,

No not for just a day,

Not for just a year,

But always.
