About the song
When we think of Dolly Parton, we think of a woman who has spent decades charming the world with her voice, wit, and unapologetic authenticity. With a career spanning over 60 years, Dolly has become more than just a country music icon — she’s a storyteller, a philanthropist, and a cultural symbol of strength and compassion. Her song “Forever Love” is a beautiful example of everything that makes Dolly so beloved: heartfelt lyrics, timeless melodies, and a sincerity that cuts straight to the soul.
“Forever Love” isn’t just another romantic ballad. It’s a tender, honest reflection on the kind of love that endures — through challenges, through time, and through the ordinary moments of life. In a world where relationships often seem fleeting, Dolly reminds us that true love, the kind that’s built on loyalty, patience, and mutual respect, still exists. Her voice — gentle yet strong — carries a warmth that feels like a quiet embrace. Whether you’re falling in love for the first time or holding onto a partner of many years, the song speaks to that deeply human longing to be cherished and understood.
What makes the track especially moving is that it doesn’t rely on grand declarations. Instead, Dolly Parton paints love as something found in the everyday: a shared glance, a whispered promise, a hand held in silence. She celebrates not just the highs of romance, but the quiet endurance of real commitment.
This song fits perfectly into Dolly’s larger body of work — songs that speak from the heart and connect with listeners across generations. With “Forever Love”, she once again proves that her music isn’t bound by trends or time. It’s about human truths, sung with grace and honesty.
So whether you’re a lifelong fan or new to her music, “Forever Love” is a gentle reminder of what it means to love — truly and deeply, forever.

Lyrics
You touch me it’s like no one else ever touched me
Kiss me and all other kisses just fade
No other arms come to mind when you hold me
As if ever knew that for you, I was made
You are my joy and my laughter
You are the moon and you gave the stars light
You are my ever after
Forever love, the light of my life
You wrote the book, each page and each chapter
You are my poetry, story and song
Each moment I try to capture
All of the magic that you bring along
Fantasy, romance, story-book feelings
Wrapped as a gift sent from Heaven above
I promise I’ll always love you
I’m yours, forever, love
You are my joy and my laughter
I vow to drink only from your loving cup
You are my ever after
You’re mine, forever love
You are my joy and my laughter
My ever after
My forever love
My cherished
Forever love
