If All Else Fails Lyrics
You were the little angel, everybody noticed you
Had a shining light of beauty only I could see through
And I thought you were something special even as a child at play
But you said a man in shining armor would carry you off someday
Take my love wherever you go, whatever you do
I'll try to be strong for you, keep my face inside of your mind
Don't let it fade or let it get lost to time
'Cause when you finally see through the veil
Through all of the hopes and dreams your fairy tales
I will be waiting for you, waiting for you
If all else fails, if all else fails
You said there was something out there that you and you alone
Could find and I tried in vain to tell you it was all inside your mind
But I'd rather let you have your freedom than live with the bitterness
But it's so damn hard to do it, so baby, just remember this
Take my love wherever you go, whatever you do
I'll try to be strong for you, keep my face inside of your mind
Don't let it fade or let it get lost to time
'Cause when you finally see through the veil
Through all of the hopes and dreams your fairy tales
I will be waiting for you, waiting for you
If all else fails, if all else fails
Had a shining light of beauty only I could see through
And I thought you were something special even as a child at play
But you said a man in shining armor would carry you off someday
Take my love wherever you go, whatever you do
I'll try to be strong for you, keep my face inside of your mind
Don't let it fade or let it get lost to time
'Cause when you finally see through the veil
Through all of the hopes and dreams your fairy tales
I will be waiting for you, waiting for you
If all else fails, if all else fails
You said there was something out there that you and you alone
Could find and I tried in vain to tell you it was all inside your mind
But I'd rather let you have your freedom than live with the bitterness
But it's so damn hard to do it, so baby, just remember this
Take my love wherever you go, whatever you do
I'll try to be strong for you, keep my face inside of your mind
Don't let it fade or let it get lost to time
'Cause when you finally see through the veil
Through all of the hopes and dreams your fairy tales
I will be waiting for you, waiting for you
If all else fails, if all else fails
No matter how it ends, I'll always be your friend
Don't ever be afraid, I'm with you, I'm with you
And when you finally see through the veil
Through all of your hopes and dreams, your little fairy tales
I will be waiting for you, waiting for you
If all else fails, if all else fails, don't be afraid
Don't ever be afraid, I'm with you, I'm with you
And when you finally see through the veil
Through all of your hopes and dreams, your little fairy tales
I will be waiting for you, waiting for you
If all else fails, if all else fails, don't be afraid
