[Verse 1: Dolly Parton]

We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain

We jumped, never asking why

We kissed, I fell under your spell

A love no one could deny

[Pre-Chorus: Dolly Parton]

Don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

I can't live a lie running for my life

I will always want you

[Chorus: Dolly Parton & Miley Cyrus, Dolly Parton]

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you, wreck me

[Verse 2: Miley Cyrus, Dolly Parton & Miley Cyrus]

I put you high up in the sky

And now, you're not coming down

Oh, and it slowly turned, you let mе burn

And now, we're ashes on thе ground

[Pre-Chorus: Miley Cyrus, Both, Dolly Parton]

But don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always want you

I can't live a lie, running for my life

I will always love you

[Chorus: Dolly Parton & Miley Cyrus, Dolly Parton]

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was wreck me

I came in like a wrecking ball

Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung

Left me crashing in a blazing fall

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you wreck me

[Bridge: Dolly Parton, Miley Cyrus, Both]

I never meant to start a war (I never meant to start a war)

I just wanted you to let me in (Let me in)

And instead of using force ('Sing force)

I guess I should've let you win

I never meant to start a war (Never meant to start a war)

I just wanted you to let me in (I just wanted you to let me in)

I guess I should've let you win

Guess I should've let you win

[Break: Dolly Parton & Miley Cyrus]

Don't you ever say I just walked away

I will always love you

[Chorus: Miley Cyrus, Both, Dolly Parton]

I came in like a wrecking ball

I never hit so hard in love

All I wanted was to break your walls

All you ever did was wreck me

I came in like a— (I will always love you)

Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung (I will always love you)

Left me crashing in a blazing fall

All you ever did was wreck me

Yeah, you wreck me

Yeah, you wreck me

[Outro: Dolly Parton & Miley Cyrus]

I will always love you
