About this song
"Always" is a power ballad by Bon Jovi and opens the band's first greatest hits album, Cross Road, released in October 1994. It was originally intended as the soundtrack for the 1993 film Romeo Is Bleeding, but the band decided not to lend the song to the movie. The song reached the top of the charts in five international markets, even though the film failed.
