The Real Story Behind Why Dolly Parton Wrote the Song “I Will Always Love You”
“When I finished, he said, ‘Well, hell! If you feel that strong about it, just go on—providing I get to produce that record because that’s the best song you ever wrote.’”, with “I Will Always Love You” on the tracklist
. The song became the multiple-time No. 1 hit we know it as today, and Dolly and Porter even went on to perform it together at a special Grand Ole Opry show. She also reportedly sang it to Porter one final time, on the day that he died in 2007. At the end of the day, Dolly says “I Will Always Love You” represents her desire to show Porter how much she cared about and appreciated him, even though it was time for her to go.
“It’s saying, ‘Just because I’m going don’t mean I won’t love you. I appreciate you and I hope you do great and I appreciate everything you’ve done, but I’m out of here,’” she told CMT.Content Strategy Editor Heather Finn is the content strategy editor at Good Housekeeping, where she heads up the brand's social media strategy and covers entertainment news for the site.
