Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow
Rita Wilson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You give you 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?
Tonight with words unspoken
You say that I'm the only one
But will my heart be broken
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?
So tell me now, and I won't ask again
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Will you still love me tomorrow?
Rita Wilson’s cover of “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” is a haunting and poignant version of one of the most timeless love songs in history. The lyrics convey the feelings of uncertainty and vulnerability that come with falling in love. The lyrics focus on the apprehension one often feels in the early stages of a relationship, when one cannot be sure if their feelings will be reciprocated or if the other person’s affection will last.
The first verse sets the scene for the rest of the song. The singer is in love, and their lover is giving them everything they want: love, attention, and affection. However, the singer is plagued by doubts and fears about the relationship. In the chorus, they ask the essential question: will their lover still love them tomorrow? This question is an honest and heartfelt expression of vulnerability and fear — the fear of being left alone, the fear of not being good enough, and the fear of losing love.
The second verse shows the singer’s emotional insecurity, they wonder if their lover is sincere or if they are just looking for a fleeting moment of pleasure. The singer’s emotions are vulnerable to the circumstances that surround them, and they are afraid that they will be left heartbroken when the night ends. The third verse exposes the core of the singer’s fear. They are not sure if their lover's love is honest and true, and they need to know if their love will last beyond tonight.
