Always Love
by Nada Surf

To make a mountain of your life
Is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me
Always love… Hate will get you every time
Always love… Don’t wait till the finish line

Slow demands come ’round
Squeeze the air and keep the rest out
It helps to write it down
Even when you then cross it out

But Always Love… Hate will get you every time
Always Love… Even when you wanna find

Self-directed lives
I want to know what it’d be like to
Aim so high above
Any card that you’ve been dealt, you…

Always Love… Hate will get you every time
Always Love… Hate will get you…

And I’ve been held back by something
Yeah. You said to me quietly on the stairs,
I’ve been held back by something
Yeah. You said to me quietly on the stairs.
You said…
Hey, you could once.
Hey, you could once.

To make a mountain of your life
Is just a choice
But I never learned enough
To listen to the voice that told me
Always love…hate will get you every time
Always love…hate will get you…

I’ve been held back by something
Yeah, You said to me quietly on the stairs,
I’ve been held back by something
Yeah, You said to me quietly on the stairs
You said..
Hey, you could once
Hey, you could once
Hey, you could once
