"I Love You Always Forever" was hugely successful on U.S. radio, staying at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 for nine consecutive weeks and spending thirteen consecutive weeks at number one on the airplay chart. It exceeded one million "spins" on radio to claim its place in music industry history as the most-played single up to that point. The single reached number five on the UK Singles Chart in 1996. The popularity of the song shot Lewis's debut album, Now in a Minute, to platinum status.

Her second LP, Blue Planet, won critical acclaim, but it was largely overlooked by the public. Although it eventually produced a U.S. number-one dance single, "Love Him", Lewis parted ways with Atlantic Records and independently produced her third LP, Be Still, which featured Lewis on an almost entirely acoustic set. Lewis was featured as a guest vocalist on several trance music/house music recordings. Her most recent LP, In the Pink, was release in 2008.

Harvest Moon
Donna Lewis Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I Want
To feel your body close
And I want to Hear every Breath and
Every word every waking moment
I dream of you

I want you
To love me like I've never felt love before

Warm me, hold me and
I want you
To take me to your secret place
Beneath the brazen skies,
Under the Harvest Moon

Come inside my dream cave
Come inside my rainbow shell
Come inside my dream cave
And I will show you

We bathe in Shadows
Chocolate kisses linger
The air is heavy and sweet
In this luscious tangle
In this luscious tangle of oblivion.

Come inside my dream cave
Come inside my rainbow shell
Come inside my dream cave
And I will show you

Come inside my dream cave
Come inside my rainbow shell

Come inside my dream cave
And I will show you
