Whitney Houston memorably covered the song in 1992 for her debut film The Bodyguard. The cover became wildly popular, landing on a number of top charts.
Dolly Parton had written the song as a tribute to her partner Porter Wagoner following her decision to go solo.
So who sang it best? Dhwani Bhanushali, Whitney Houston or Dolly Parton?
If you want to sing along, here are the lyrics to Whitney Houston's version, courtesy A-Z Lyrics:
If I should stay
I would only be in your way
So I'll go but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way
And I... will always love you, ooh
Will always love you
You
My darling, you...
Mmm-mm
Bittersweet memories –
That is all I'm taking with me.
So good-bye.
Please don't cry:
We both know I'm not what you, you need
And I... will always love you
I... will always love you
You, ooh
[Instrumental / Sax solo]
I hope life treats you kind
And I hope you have all you've dreamed of
And I wish you joy and happiness
But above all this I wish you love
And I... will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I will always love you
I, I will always love you.
You.
Darling, I love you.
I'll always...
I'll always love you.
Ooh
Ooh
