lyrics

I Will Always Love You (When I'm Alone)
©2007 Alice Bierhorst/BMI

There's no honor in deception
But the heart can not be bound
For every rule there's an except
And a reason to be found

I can never say the words
You can read them in my eyes
For fear of being overheard
I can only whisper lies

CHORUS
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
When I'm alone
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
This world is not our home
I can never love you in company
But I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
When I'm alone

The hours pass so quickly
Of hidden moments life is made
And the wheel is ever-turning
Spinning softly to the grave

CHORUS

The night may be long
And the storm may be strong
I won't steer us wrong
We'll sail clear to the end

Now the leaves are gold and burning
As the summer slips away
But the heart will keep on yearning
For the will to find a way

CHORUS
