Always Lyrics - Leonard Cohen

Always
by Leonard Cohen
(Oh friends, .. don't matter if you're a man or a woman. If you're in love 
with somebody, these are the words that you got to learn to say. Now 
listen carefully. Here it comes...) 
I'll be loving you always 
with a love that's true, always 
When the thing you've planned 
needs my helping hand, 
I will understand, always, always 

Days may not be fair, always 
Yeah but that's when I'll be there, always 
Not for just an hour, 
Not for just a day, 
Not for just a year, but always. 

I said that I'll be loving you, always 
with a love that's true, always. 
When the thing you've planned 
needs my helping hand, 
I will, I will understand, always, always 

(Oh that's pretty ... that's pretty too ... Oh darling) 

The days may not be fair, always 
Yeah but that's when I'll be there, always 
Not for just a second, or a minute, or an hour, 
Not for just a weekend and a shake down in the shower, 
Not for just the summer and the winter going sour, 
But always, always, always 

(Ok if you don't want to quit, let's try it one more time) 

I'll be loving you, always 
with a love that's true, always. 
When the thing you've planned 
needs my helping hand, 
I will understand, I will, I will understand, always, always 

The days may not be fair, always 
(Don't worry, baby) 
That's when I'll be there, always 
Not for just an hour, 
Not for just a day, 
Not for just a year, but always.
