I'll Always Love You

I made this song for the 18th wedding anniversary with my wife Belinda, the one I love so much. God gave me a woman, the helper that's needed in this life. If they write a book about my life, on every page there will be the name "Belinda". Writing this song started a year ago. I searched the internet and couldn't find any song fitting the profile I needed, so I started a song on my own. Many thanks to Elton who helped me with the lyrics. I gave him some ideas to start from. When it came back, I thanked God. These were the lyrics I was searching for. For everyone who loves his wife or girlfriend, maybe this song can help to express it. - Peter, 13 June 2008



Lyrics

I stand here in the moment
Looking there at you
There is something special
That I have to do
I love you, girl I love you

I look into your eyes
And know that you love me
You hold me with your gaze
A captive I am free
I love you, girl I love you

Every time that I long to be with you I know
Every wonder that you see in me
I see it in you

Girl, I love you
And I'll never let you go
Girl, I love you
And I'll never let you go

In the center of my heart
There's always room for you
In the center of my heart
You're always there for me

I need you
Girl I always want to be with you
In the dance of life I will be true
Just as you are true to me

As each day goes by
Like a dove our love with wings will fly
Sealed forever it will never die
And I'll never let you go

Let you go
Never let you go away
Never let you go away
Girl I'll never let you go

(Long solo)

Girl, I love you
And I'll never let you go
Girl, I love you
And I'll never let you go

I need you
Girl I always want to be with you
In the dance of life I will be true
Just as you are true to me

As each day goes by
Like a dove our love with wings will fly
Sealed forever it will never die
I always will love you

I love you
I'll always love you
Always love you

Mary2009-02-08So beautiful,
created from the heart,
to proclaim love that is beyond true;
this is eternal,romantic, honest love......
2009-01-13My daughter and future son-in-law are not serving the Lord - too many worldly distractions, but she knows, she told me that they both like the song and will also play it at their wedding.
Thanks, I think it is quite pure, compared to other songs with the same title, e.g. Whitney Houston's, "I'll always love you" which is a very emotional song, relating to break-up, but this has a positive message in it - "I will always love you." Please pray for them, she is living very far away from me and I miss her a lot. It is good for her to marry, to have a partner. It is not nice being alone so far away from Mum and home for so many years. Thanks for your prayers for me too. I am not married, the Lord has not yet given me a husband God bless xx 13-01-2009
David Weirich2009-01-04Truly wonderful.
2008-12-21very soft and tender words,pray you'll still sing this to her many years to come.
April2008-11-07the title of the song first drew me because thats whats on my husbands headstone a widow of two years now it really expresses the way I feel may God bless you and your family as you continue to bring glory to His name.

martine uit belgie2008-06-17ik vind dit een mooie song maar het is spijtig dat er geen midi en geen nederlandse tekst bijstaat,maar anders is het heel mooi doe zo verder.

daniel2008-06-16Hey! This is a absolutely fantastic song, you have great talent. I'm a musician myself and i was wondering, if i used this song on myspace or something would you mind. I would sing it myself, and i would put that you wrote it. So how about it?
I want the world to hear this song?

Dan
