Always

All I ever wanted was to set you free, but it seems I'm best at building jails.
If this word's a prison, it wasn't meant to be - always - always.
Now the wind is rising or so it seems to me. Won't you help me learn to make some sails?
Because if we both were sailors then this word could be the sea - always - always.

Well, here's the odds we've got: maybe, maybe not. Maybe that's a lot, always.
I swear my heart is true, like foolish people do.
Let me give this to you - always.

Clever men will tell you that to love is soon to grieve. The promise of a promise is to fail.
But is it really better to know better than believe in always? Oh, always.

Well, here's the odds we've got: maybe, maybe not. Maybe that's a lot, always.
I swear my heart is true, like foolish people do.
Let me give this to you - always. Always, always.
