Always
Matt Darey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You'll come back you know (x2)

Time after time you walk away,
only to return
Always the same, always the same
after each sojourn
You repeat those worn out lines,
I have heard before
Still I know down deep inside,
you'd never close the door
You'd never close the door

(Refrain)
You'll come back you know
you'll always come back to me
No matter how far you go
you'll always come back
you'll come back you know
you'll always come back to me
No matter how far you go
you'll always come back
you'll always come back to me

you'll come back you know

Sometimes you wait out all the year,
but mostly just a day
The loneliness you cannot bear
although you'd never say
Instead you say those worn out lines
to me just the same
knowing that I will resign
and take you back again

(Refrain)

You'll always come back
You'll always come back to me

You'll always come back to me (x2)





You'll come back you know (x2)

Overall Meaning

The song "Always" by Matt Darey featuring Tiff Lacey speaks about a relationship that has gone through several cycles of breaking up, only to be reconciled repeatedly. The singer of the song seems to be resigned to this pattern, acknowledging that no matter how far the partner goes, or how long they are away, they will always come back. The lyrics suggest that the partner is not entirely committed to the relationship, and only returns when they feel lonely or need comfort.


The first verse sets up the pattern of the relationship, with the partner repeatedly leaving and returning. The second verse suggests that the partner may only be gone for a short time, but returns because they cannot bear the loneliness they feel without the singer. The refrain, "You'll come back you know, you'll always come back to me," is repeated throughout the song and reinforces that the singer is resigned to this pattern and expects the partner to return no matter what.


Overall, the song expresses a sense of ambivalence about the relationship. While the singer accepts that the partner will always return, there is a suggestion that this happens out of convenience rather than true commitment. The song is poignant and bittersweet, with a melody that echoes the emotional ups and downs of the relationship described in the lyrics.


Line by Line Meaning

You'll come back you know
Despite your repeated departures, you will inevitably return to me


Time after time you walk away, only to return
You have left me on many occasions, but you always end up returning


Always the same, always the same after each sojourn
Your behavior is predictable, you leave and return without any significant changes


You repeat those worn out lines, I have heard before
You use the same excuses and apologies every time you leave and I am familiar with them


Still I know down deep inside, you'd never close the door You'd never close the door
Despite your departures, I believe you will always have a place for me in your heart


Sometimes you wait out all the year, but mostly just a day
Occasionally you stay away for long periods of time, but usually you return quickly


The loneliness you cannot bear although you'd never say
Your fear of being alone drives you back to me, even if you don't admit it


Instead you say those worn out lines to me just the same
You continue to use the same phrases when you return, as if they will magically repair any damage


knowing that I will resign and take you back again
You are aware that I will forgive you and welcome you back, no matter how many times you hurt me


You'll always come back to me
I believe that you will never truly leave me, and no matter how far you go, you will always return

Volverás lo sabes (x2)
You'll come back you know (x2)

Una y otra vez te alejas
Time after time you walk away,

Solo para volver
Only to return

Siempre igual, siempre igual
Always the same, always the same

Después de cada estancia
After each sojourn

Repites esas líneas gastadas,
You repeat those worn out lines,

He escuchado antes
I have heard before

Todavía lo sé en el fondo
Still I know down deep inside,

Nunca cerrarías la puerta
You'd never close the door

Nunca cerrarías la puerta
You'd never close the door

Volverás lo sabes
You'll come back you know

Siempre volverás a mi
You'll always come back to me

No importa lo lejos que vayas

Volverás lo sabes

A veces esperas todo el año
Sometimes you wait out all the year,

Pero sobre todo solo un dia
But mostly just a day

La soledad que no puedes soportar
The loneliness you cannot bear

Aunque nunca dirías
Although you'd never say

En cambio, dices esas líneas gastadas
Instead you say those worn out lines

Para mi igual
To me just the same

Sabiendo que renunciaré
Knowing that I will resign

Y llevarte de vuelta de nuevo
And take you back again

Siempre volverás
You'll always come back

Siempre volverás a mi
You'll always come back to me

Siempre volverás a mi (x2)
You'll always come back to me (x2)
