"I Will Always Love You"
Sung by Whitney Houston in The Bodyguard
___________________
If I should stay
I would only be in your way
so I'll go but I know
I'll be thinking of you every step of the way
And I... will always love you, ooh
Will always love you
You
My darling, you
Mmm-mm
Bittersweet memories -
That is all I'm taking with me
So good-bye.
Please don't cry:
We both know I'm not what you, you need
And I... will always love you
I...will always love you
You, ooh
(instrumental/Sax Solo)
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've 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
I will always love you
I will always love you
I, I will always love you.
You. I
Darling, I love you
I'll always...
I'll always love you.
ooh
ooh

I Had To Leave You, Dear
Lyrics by Me
_______
It is this way
A journey each one must travel
Alone into darkness
And now I dwell only in your past memories.
But you... are strong, a survivor
You will be okay
Yes
You will go, on...
Oh-yes
I was not strong like you -
When our son died I became lost.
It broke me.
My spirit:
You know I was never the same man
But you... are a survivor
You... will be okay dear
You, will
(Instrumental/piano)
I know you understand
That I could not go on any longer
That I had to end my awful pain
So I crashed by car into that lake
But you... are strong my darling
So strong my sweet darling
So strong my sweet darling
So strong my sweet darling
But you are so strong, my dear
Yes, you are so strong, my dear
You.
Will, survive, darling
Because you...
You have inner strength.
You
Do.
