Always Will
Wynonna Judd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If time is a train rollin' down the track
Every minute is a box car that don't come back
Take a look around you, it's all gonna change
Whatever you see ain't never gonna stay the same
Except for the rain and the wind in the trees
And the way I feel about you and me

[Chorus]
And the way I feel when I'm with you
Is like the roll of the ocean
And the calm and quiet of the moon
And when you hold me time stands still
It always has and you know it always will

Out on the horizon the sun is goin' down
It ain't gone, it's just on its way around
Just like your love I see it every day
In the things you do and the things you say
You touch my hand and I feel the thrill
I always have and I always will

[Chorus: x 2]





You know it always will
You know it always will

Overall Meaning

The song "Always Will" by Wynonna Judd is a beautiful testament to undying love. The song opens with the metaphor that time is like a train moving steadily along, with every minute being a boxcar that never comes back. The singer then sings about the inevitability of change and how everything around her is constantly in flux except for the wind and the rain, and her love for her partner. The chorus then goes on to say that her love for her partner feels like the roll of the ocean and the calm and quiet of the moon. When she is with him, time stands still and always has and always will.


The second verse of the song continues with the theme of constant change, but the singer says that even as things change around her, she sees the same love in her partner's actions and words every day. When he touches her, the thrill she feels is as strong as it always has been and always will be. The chorus repeats, reminding us that the singer's love for her partner is eternal and unchanging.


Overall, the song is a beautiful tribute to love that has stood the test of time. It is a reminder that while the world around us may change, some things never will.
