I Will Always Love You
Lionel Richie/Diana Ross Lyrics

I guess I'll always love you
No matter what happens, I will always have feelings for you.

You've got the love I need
Your love fulfills me and is essential to my life.

Open up your arms
Welcome me back into your life and embrace me.

And let me walk on in
Allow me to return to your life and be a part of it again.

Open up your heart
Be vulnerable and let me be a part of your life again.

And let me live again
Allow me to experience joy and happiness again with your love.

When you left you left with me
You took a part of me when you left.

A dream no longer reality
Our love was a dream that has now ended.

I live the shadows of our past
I am haunted by the memories of our relationship.

With this love that's born to last
Our love is strong enough to withstand the test of time.

The only time I'm happy
My happiness is dependent on thoughts of you.

Is when you're on my mind
You occupy my thoughts and bring me happiness when I think of you.

Every day I live
My life is filled with the hope and possibility of being with you again.

All my love I give
I offer my heart and my love unconditionally to you.

I've been a thousand places
I have traveled far and wide, but my mind always turns back to you.

Seen your smile on a thousand faces
I see traces of you in the people I meet and the places I go.

No matter what I try to do
I cannot escape or forget about you.

I'm always dreaming of you
In my dreams, I am with you and happy again.

Every boy that passes by
I see you in every man I encounter.

I see your sparkle in his eye
I see the qualities that I loved in you reflected in others.

Right away I stop and stare
I am transfixed by the reminder of you I see in others.

Close my eyes and see you there
I can conjure up your image in my mind when I close my eyes.

Whenever I feel almost free
When I feel like I am moving on from our relationship.

Memories take hold of me
Memories of our time together bring me back to you.

I love you now so much more
My love for you has grown stronger over time.

Than I ever did before
I realize now how much you mean to me.
