Always You
Reilly Maggie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You and me, the pack
When I tried to hide in ...
You'd come running back
Swimming in a river
I fell into the sand
And I thought I dreamt
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
Remember schooldays
I found this photograph
That innocent look on your smiling face
Designed to make me laugh
And if my heart was broken
By some young cavalier
When I cried all night
You would dry my tears
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
I couldn't see you I was looking out too far
I opened up my eyes and all time there you are
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
'Cause it was always you, always you
And when the night was cold and I needed a shoulder
It was always you
