I Will Always Love You
Alonzo Holt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I would only be in your way
So I'll go but I know
I'll think of you
Every step of the way
And I will always love you
I will always love you
You, my darling you
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye, please, don't cry
We both know I'm not what you, you need
And I will always love you
I will always love you, oh
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you'll have
All you've dreamed of
And I wished you joy
And happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
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, you
Darling, I love you
I'll always
I'll always
Love you
The lyrics to "I Will Always Love You" by Alonzo Holt speaks about a bittersweet breakup between two people who are deeply in love with one another. The singer acknowledges that if they stay with their loved one, they will only add to their pain and hinder their growth. So instead, the singer chooses to leave, but promises that they will always love their partner, affectionately calling them "my darling."
The singer also acknowledges that they will always carry the memories of their time together with them, even though they are leaving. The mention of bitter-sweet memories suggests that while there were some lovely moments, there were also painful ones. The singer asks their partner not to cry at their departure, as they both know it's for the best. The phrase "We both know I'm not what you need" suggests that the singer may not be what their partner requires to be happy, even though they love each other deeply.
Towards the end of the song, the singer wishes their partner a happy life and all they've ever dreamt of. They express their desire for their partner to experience love, above everything else, and promises that they will always love them, no matter what happens. The song serves as a powerful reminder that sometimes, true love means letting go and putting your partner's happiness above your own.

If I should stay
If I were to remain in your life
I would only be in your way
