Novocaine

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.

And 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 when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always.

Now your 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
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 with these words of mine
To say to you till the end of time.

That 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.

And 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 when I die, you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you - Always.

Always.
