About the song
Few songs in the American songbook carry the emotional resonance and timeless quality of **Willie Nelson & Carole King – “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow”**. This duet brings together two iconic voices, each with decades of musical storytelling behind them, to breathe new life into a classic. Originally written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin in 1960 and made famous by The Shirelles, the song has always asked a vulnerable question — one that transcends generations and musical genres: *Will you still love me tomorrow?*
In this rendition, **Carole King**, revisiting the song she co-wrote more than six decades ago, brings the warmth and wisdom of time. Her voice carries a quiet intimacy, enriched by a lifetime of lived experience. She no longer sings as the uncertain young woman of the original, but as someone who knows both love’s tenderness and its fragility. Pairing her with **Willie Nelson**, whose signature phrasing and gently weathered vocals have always had a way of making lyrics feel like personal confessions, creates a remarkable emotional depth. His understated guitar work — that familiar tone of Trigger, his trusted Martin guitar — lends a rustic elegance to the performance.
What’s particularly moving about **Willie Nelson & Carole King – “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow”** is how it reframes the question at its heart. When sung by younger voices, it’s a plea wrapped in insecurity. But in the hands of these seasoned artists, it becomes a more reflective meditation — not just on romantic love, but on enduring connection, memory, and the passage of time. It’s a reminder that love’s questions don’t fade with age; they simply deepen.
This duet isn’t just a reinterpretation — it’s a conversation between two legends, echoing across time. For longtime fans of either artist, it’s a gift. For new listeners, it’s an invitation to rediscover the richness of a song that continues to ask the same simple, profound question — and somehow always feels like it’s the first time you’re hearing it.

Lyrics
Tonight you’re mine, completely
You give your soul 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 in your sighs
And will you still love me tomorrow
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 if your love
Is a love I can be sure of
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
