If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
You
My darling, you
Mm, mm
Bittersweet memories
That is all I'm taking with me
So goodbye, please, don't cry
We both know I'm not what you, you need
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
You
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish to you joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish you love
And I
Will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you, I
I will always love you, you
I'll always love you

    I love this song and have done some attempts to cover it myself (not as good as this one obviously). But what I missed in this cover is 1. the build-up at beginning, this cover started out too big imo. 2. Those high notes in the end were too raw for me. Based on the rest of the song, Id guess that this man can hit those notes with his head voice.

    for people seeing erik for the first time, he's not just some 'young gentleman'. he won swedish idol more than a decade ago and was recently the lead singer for skid row. you have to be absolutely freakishly talented to measure up to sebastian bach, and erik does it easily. i'm not surprised he nailed this song - he is capable of any song he wants.

    God given talent. I wish I'd had this version and would've had it played at my son's celebration of life. Touches my heart more than Whitney's version or Dolly's original ever did. Greatness rarely happens in any remake of a song, but twice for this one. Phenomenal
