"I Love You Always Forever" is a song by British singer Donna Lewis. It was released in the United States in May 1996 as the lead single from her debut album, Now in a Minute. Inspired by the H. E. Bates novel Love for Lydia, it peaked at number five on the UK Singles Chart. Outside the United Kingdom, it peaked within the top ten of the charts in Australia, Austria, Canada, France, Germany, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland and the United States. In the latter country, the song peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100, where it remained for nine weeks during the summer of 1996, kept from number one by Los Del Rio's "Macarena". Despite this, the song was number one on the Hot 100 Airplay chart for thirteen weeks and the Billboard Top 40 Mainstream chart for eleven weeks, becoming one of the most played songs of the 1990s. The song therefore is drawn for third place among songs with the longest runs at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 and drawn at second for the most weeks at the Billboard Top 40 Mainstream chart. In Australia, the single also peaked at number two on the ARIA Singles Chart. In 2016, the song was covered by Australian pop singer Betty Who, peaking at number six on the ARIA Singles Chart.
