Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I should stay
I would only be in my way
So I'll go but I know
I'll think of every step of my way
And I will always love you
And I will always love you
Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me

So goodbye Please don't cry
Cause we both know I'm not what you you need
And I will always love you
And I will always love you
And I will always love you
Will always love you
I will always love you
And I will always love you

Will always love you
I will always love you
