Sweeter than honey, as soft as a sigh
Gentle as snowflakes, but warm as July
This is the way I remember your kiss
If I live forever, I'll never forget

Misty as morning, as blue as the sky
Reflections of heaven in your loving eyes
Eyes that said more than your words ever did
And if I live forever, I'll never forget

If I live forever, I'll never forget
It's you that I wanted to spend my life with
Do I still love you? The answer is yes
And if I live forever, I'll never forget

Two loving arms that I felt welcome in
Arms that I've run to again and again
How do you erase sweet mem'ries you'd miss?
If I live forever, I'll never forget

Sad circumstances that stood between us
Wouldn't let us share a precious sweet love
Do you remember? Do you feel like this?
If I live forever, I'll never forget

If I live forever, I'll never forget
It's you that I wanted to spend my life with
Do I still love you? The answer is yes
And if I live forever, I'll never forget

Do you remember? Do you feel like this?
If I live forever, I'll never forget

Dolly Parton

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
