Lyrics
1. If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I’ll go, but I know
I’ll think of you each step of the way
And I will always love you
I will always love you
You, my darling, you
2. Bittersweet memories
That’s all I am taking with me
So, goodbye, please don’t cry
We both know that I’m not what you need
And I will always love you
I will always love you
Verse 3: Instrumental solo
4. I hope life treats you kind
And I hope that you have all that you ever dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
And I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
