"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.

Donna Lewis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Forever changing
You're one of a kind
One in a whirlwind, divine
Little moonbeam
Let me hold you
Little moonbeam
I ask you
Let me in
Let me hide in this sweet thing
Let the willow walls enclose
Pulling my back straight
My feet straight
And I can laugh
I can laugh out loud
Who would love me better?
Little moonbeam
Encourage me
Little moonbeam
Pray for me
Little moonbeam
Discover me
Little moonbeam
Let me in
Let me in
The smallness
The smallness
And taking a deep
Up in the blue zone
And I can't believe this
A joyous occasion
I wanna to make it
Okay, I got a secret
Okay, I got a reason to be
Little moonbeam
Let follow you
Little moonbeam
Take over
Little angel ray
Little angel ray
Little angel ray
Little angel ray
Little angel ray
Little angel ray
The lyrics of the song "Moonbeam" by Donna Lewis have a beautiful and complex meaning. The song starts by describing the constant flow of life, the transformations that occur and how unique each individual is. The line "Crossing over, Forever changing, You're one of a kind" highlights that every being evolves and changes over time, but they are still unique and one of a kind. The next line "One in a whirlwind, Divine" suggests that each person is part of a bigger cycle, a whirlwind which they have no control over, but they are divine nonetheless.
The chorus of the song then shifts towards a plea to the moonbeam, symbolising hope and a connection to a higher power. The lyrics "Let me hold you, Let me in" suggest a desire to connect with and embrace the light that the moonbeam represents. There are also references to finding inner peace, with lines such as "Let the willow walls enclose, Pulling my back straight, My feet straight" and "I can laugh out loud, Who would love me better?". These lines suggest a longing for a sanctuary safe enough to let their emotions flow and be accepted, and to find love and acceptance for who they truly are.
