Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow
Claudia Church Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You give your love so sweetly
Tonight the light of love is in your eyes
But will you love me tomorrow? Is this a lasting treasure
Or just a moment's pleasure?
Can I believe the magic of your sighs?
Will you still love me tomorrow? Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
When the night meets the morning sun? I'd like to know that your love
Is love I can be sure of
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Claudia Church's rendition of "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" speaks of the ever-present fear of uncertainty and the nagging doubt of whether a person's love will endure the test of time. The first verse talks about the present moment, where the lover's love is sweet and all-encompassing, yet the singer remains doubtful if this love will still exist tomorrow. The second verse addresses the future, where the singer is worried about potential heartbreak that might ensue when the night meets the morning sun. The last stanza then becomes the singer's plea to the lover, asking for reassurance that their love is a lasting treasure and not just a moment's pleasure.
The lyrics of the song convey the universal fear of falling in love and masking the uncertainty that comes with it. Though the song was written in the 60s, it still retains its relevance in today's time. It beautifully portrays people's quest for security in love and their yearning for a love that endures.
