I know you've been hurt before I can see it in your eyes And if you just shut the door I would not be surprised Even though I know you've heard it These words I'm tryin' to say I think the others only flirted With the true meaning of always Chorus Well you can say what you wanna But I ain't gonna Stop this journey to the center of your heart I see the candle through your window It burns there every night The shadow leaves an innuendo Of no one holdin' you right Many nights I've dreamt you near me But awakened to you gone I know one day you'll hear me I don't care how long Chorus I've waited a lifetime baby Just to know your name We've done everything in our minds Let's stop the game, lets stop it Even though I know You've heard these words I'm tryin' to say Somehow I think these others They only flirted with the true meaning of always
