always and forever lyrics

Always, always and forever
Always, always and forever

I'm sitting here, I'm thinking back
To a time when I was young
My memory is clear as day
I'm listening to the dishes clink

You were downstairs
As you would sing songs of praise
And all the times we laughed with you
And all the times you stayed true to us
Now we'll say

I said I thank you
I will always thank you
More than you would know
Than I could ever show

And I love you, I will always love you
There's nothing I won't do
To say these words to you
That you're beautiful forever
Always, always and forever

You were my mom, you were my dad
The only thing I ever had was you, it's true
And even when the times got hard you were there
To let us know that we'd get through

You showed me how to be a man
You taught me how to understand the things people do
You showed me how to love my God
You taught me that not everyone knows the truth

And I thank you
I'll always thank you
More than you would know
Than I could ever show

And I love you, I'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do
To say these words to you
That you will live forever

Forever and ever
Forever and ever

I said I thank you
We'll always thank you
More than you would know
Than I could ever show

And I love you
I'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do
To say these words to you

That I thank you
We'll always thank you
More than you would ever know
Than I could ever show

And I'll love you
We'll always love you
There's nothing I won't do
To say these words to you
That you will live forever
