Always (2021) Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Hey, love
You ain't got no reason to be scared of
All your demons, they don't know what you're made of
But I do, and we'll see it through (Ah-ah-ah, mh)

[Pre-Chorus]
When you feel like you just don't belong
I'll be there to tell you that you're wrong
I'd always be there in your defense
All that really matters in the end is you, you and I

[Chorus]
I'm by your side if you're needin' somebody
If something doesn't feel right, I'll
Be your excuse when we're leavin' the party
When you feel like you might die
You don't have to worry
I can bring you back to life
I'm by your side if you're needin' somebody
Always

[Verse 2]
Oh, hey love (Hey, love)
I'd believe you if you told me you're an angel
I would love you even if you weren't able
To love me the same way I do
[Pre-Chorus]
I would write you in a million songs
I would back you even when you're wrong
I'll pretend I'm friends with all your friends
All that really matters in the end is you, you and I

[Chorus]
I'm by your side if you're needin' somebody
If something doesn't feel right, I'll
Be your excuse when we're leavin' the party
When you feel like you might die
You don't have to worry (I'm by your side)
I can bring you back to life
I'm by your side if you're needin' somebody (I'm by your side, yeah)
Always, always, always (Always, yeah)
Always, always

[Outro]
I'm by your side if you're needin' somebody
Always

Genius Answer

I got to a point with the songwriting where I was feeling like I should be putting my arm around other people who’ve been at the same place as me. And, again, almost putting my arm around a younger version of myself. I’ve had my life saved in a relationship and I’ve had someone be there for me and I’ve been very lucky in that sense. This is a cousin to “Medicine” in that it’s celebrating people that have loved you.
