ALWAYS ------ (JON BON JOVI) This romeo is bleeding But you can't see his blood It's nothing but some feelings That this old dog kicked up It's been raining since you left me Now I'm drowning in the flood You see I've always been a fighter But without you I give up Now I can't sing a love song Like the way it's meant to be Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore But baby, that's just me Yeah, I will love you Baby - Always And I'll be there forever and a day Always I'll be there till the stars don't shine Till the heavens burst and The words don't rhyme And I know when I die, you'll be on my mind And I'll love you - Always Now you're pictures that you left behind Are just memories of a different life Some that made us laugh, some that made us cry One that made you have to say goodbye What I'd give to run my fingers through Your hair To touch your lips, to hold you near When you say your prayers Try to understand I've made mistakes, I'm just a man When he holds you close, when he pulls you near When he says the words you've been Needing to hear I'll wish I was him `cause those words are mine To say to you till the end of time Yeah, I will love you Baby - Always And I'll be there forever and a day Always If you told me to cry for you I could If you told me to die for you I would Take a look at my face There's no price I won't pay To say these words to you Well, there ain't no luck In these loaded dice But baby if you give me just one more try We can pack up our old dreams And our old lives We'll find a place where the sun still shines HEY GOD (Bon Jovi) Hey God, I'm just a little man got a wife and family But I almost lost the house Yeah, I bought into the dream We're barely holdin' on, when I'm in way to deep We're two paychecks away from living out on the streets She's a workin' single mom, like a Saint she doesn't complain She never says a word, but she thinks that she's to blame Her son just got convicted, he blew some punk away She did her best to raise him, but the world got in the way Hey God - Tell me what the hell is going on Seems like all the good shits gone It keeps on getting harder hanging on Hey God, there's nights you know I want to scream These days you've even harder to believe I know how busy you must be, but Hey God...
