There Will Always Be a YouDonna Summer

Released: April 25, 1979

Songwriter: Donna Summer

Producer: Pete Bellotte Giorgio Moroder

Like the stars that shine above
In a warn and wind tossed love
Just like tears that fall forever

Like the raven and the dove
Looking for a perfect love
After rainy, stormy weather
I am yours and you are mine
Till the stars fall from my eyes
There will always be a you

A ship sailing without end
A lost, tired, worm down friend
And old broken run down shoe
I keep running back for more
At least you thought I would be sure
But I gave up, I broke it's true
Still there will always be a you

Don't ask me how
I tried so long
And in my heart I know
I will never go away
If you wanted me to stay
Well in a million years
I wouldn't go

Cause I love you so
Yes I do
I love you so
I could never leave you
I love you
Don't go away
Don't go away
There will always be a you

A ship sailing without end
A lost tired, worm down friend
And old broken run down shore
I keep running back for more
At least you thought I would be sure
But I give up, I broke it's true
Still there will always be a you

I am yours and you are mine
Till the stars fall from my eyes
There will always be a you

I will never go away
If you wanted me to stay
Well in a million years
I wouldn't go
Cause I love you so
Yes I do
I love you so
I could never leave you
I love you
I love you
Don't go away
Can't go away
There will always be a you

At night I cry
Can't find a reason
I'm left alone
Can't seem to understand
At night I cry
Can't find a reason
I'm left alone
Can't seem to understand
There will always be a you
There will always be a you
[Fade]

Donna Summer

As the unquestioned queen of disco, the one and only Donna Summer lit up the late 70s and 80s with flashy, exuberant vocals and automatic earworms. Born LaDonna Adrian Gaines on Dec. 31, 1948, Summer moved to Germany after being cast in a Munich production of Hair. There, she happened to meet Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, and the trio conglomerated to form a dynamic music team. With Moroder, Summer forged together her first album, The Hostage, which reached moderate success in Northern Europe. Summer’s big break, however, would come later with the release of 1975’s sexual “Love to Love You Baby”, which became one of disco’s first mainstream hits and reached #2 on the Billboard Charts.

1977 came around with the concept album I Remember Yesterday, which featured the Top 10 single “I Feel Love”. The next year, Summer hit the silver screen with the movie Thank God It’s Friday, whose soundtrack featured one of her own the iconic “Last Dance.” This would later become one of the disco legends' signature songs. “Dance” would take home an Academy Award for Best Original Song, a Grammy, and a Golden Globe, and it jumped to a peak of #3 on the charts.

Yet Summer’s illustrious career was far from finished – Summer’s first live album Live and More featured the single “MacArthur Park”, a melting ballad that was a cover of the Jimmy Webb ballad of the same name. “Park” became Summer’s first – and perhaps most memorable – No. 1 hit, and cemented her status as a vocalist as well as a performer. With the track, she became the first female in modern rock history to hold the top spot in both the Hot 100 and the Billboard 200. 1979, though, would really be the peak of her career.
