[Verse 1: Michael Bolton & Dolly Parton]
If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you each step of the way
And I will always love you
I will always love you
Bitter-sweet memories
That's all I am taking with me
Goodbye, please, now don't you cry
We both know that I'm not
What you need
But I will always love you
I will always love you

[Chorus: Michael Bolton & Dolly Parton]
Oh, I will always, always love you
Always love you, love you
I will always love you

[Verse 2: Dolly Parton]
I hope life, treats you real kind
I hope you have all
You ever dreamed of
Oh, I do wish you joy
I wish you love
And happiness
[Chorus: Michael Bolton & Dolly Parton / Both]
But above all of this
I wish you
I wish you
Love
But I
I will always, always love you
Will I, will always love you
I will always love
Will always love you
I will always love you
