Nanci Griffith Lyrics
"Always Will"

I saw you on the avenue
You looked so tired and a little blue
You were in your Sunday best
With your father's tie upon your chest

Hey, you always stood me still
And hey, you always will

In the corridor of one hotel
We once crossed paths I recall it well
Voices in an empty hall
Slamming doors to hearts that fall

Hey, you always stood me still
And hey, you always will

Always will, always will
Hey
Always will, always will
Hey

Love has been my passer by
I stood too still to catch your eye
There out on the avenue
In your father's tie I'll remember you

Hey, you always stood me still
And hey, you always will

Hey, you always stood me still
And hey, you always will
Hey, you always will
