But I swear I'll always love you for who you are Some people go against the grain Some stick to their own guns But you keep your head high through all the dust There's beauty waiting in the mirror for anyone who wants Oh, I swear I'll always love you I swear I'll always love you I swear I'll always love you for who you are Sometimes you gotta walk alone past every heart that's made of stone Pushing on 'Cause everyday you bare your soul Another follows on the road To lay it down along the line 'Cause we ain't got a thing to hide, no Some sit & think of the good old days Some leave & catch a bus But you're digging in the ground with Your feet down in the weeds, not giving up They try to cut you down 'Cause you stand taller in the yard But I swear I'll always love you I swear I'll always love you I swear I'll always love you for who you are Oh, sometimes you gotta walk alone Past every heart that's made of stone Pushing on The beating heart with no regrets The unsung hero, the blood & sweat You lay it down along the line 'Cause we ain't got a thing to hide You sit beside a martyr & you might share the same scars Oh, I hope you always love me I hope you always love me I hope you always love me for what's in my heart
