Song lyrics downloaded from: https://www.albumsongandlyrics.com ------------------------------------------ Jonatha Brooke - Always ------------------------------------------ A princess was invited to an island- A king's castle in the sea No one came to take her suitcase She waited in the garden outside The guests inside were dressed for the water But the princess remained outside alone And the king who had called her His precious flower Would not grant her a room of her own She was young and frightened By the glittering wealth, and she wondered If she'd be allowed to stay... But she slipped herself into the sea and Swimming, naked, all the crystal, Lovely, dancing waves were hers and Whispered, I am here, yes, I am always The king was angered by such indecency He sent his soldiers to pull her out Her foot met something sharp on the ocean floor But still she did not want to leave She saw the king, and she saw with him That the island was not her home She could not live her life Like the rest of his court- She needed a room of her own But she slipped herself into the sea and Swimming, naked, all the crystal, Lovely, dancing waves were hers and Whispered, I am here, yes, I am... Always, always, always, I am Always, always, always, I am, always The castle still stands there on the island, But the king and his court are alone And his beautiful, precious flower Has swum away to a room of her own She slipped herself into the sea and Swimming, naked, all the crystal, Lovely, dancing waves were hers and Whispered, I am here, yes, I am... Always, always, always, I am Always, always, always, I am Always, always, always, I am Always, always, always, I am
