“Always” is an eruptive ballad from singer songwriter Ashe’s highly-anticipated debut studio album, Ashlyn.
Yet another one of the tracks produced by Big Taste, “Always” explores melancholic themes in which she expresses her love for her ex-lover by letting them go even though this is not what she...
[Verse 1]
What if staying with me isn't the best way to keep you happy?
And if letting you go is the best way to show that I love you, I will
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll be broken when you're gone
But won't hold you if it's wrong
[Chorus]
I don't care what people say
You know I won't force you to stay
Don't want you to go, but I'll be okay
And I'll love you always
[Verse 2]
And I don't know if you'll ever come back
But I won't ever ask 'cause that's selfish
Yeah, and I've come to terms I might never feel whole again
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll be broken when you're gone
But someday we'll both be moving on
[Chorus]
I don't care what people say
You know I won't force you to stay
Don't want you to go, but I'll be okay
And I'll love you
[Bridge]
One last time, for the very last time
We'll forget that it's over tonight
One last time
[Breakdown]
If you leave, I'll find my way
Just say you won't forget me, babe
I'll be right here, not far away
[Chorus]
I don't care what people say
You know I won't force you to stay
Don't want you to go, but I'll be okay
And I'll love you always
