Whitney Houston and Natalie Cole performed “This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)” at Clive Davis’ GRAMMY Party in 2000. Originally recorded by Natalie in the 1970s, Whitney invited her to sing the song as an impromptu duet in tribute to Clive. Whitney closed her set that night with the song, telling Clive, “This will be an everlasting love, Mr. Davis.” The recording was released in 2017 on Clive Davis – The Soundtrack of Our Lives Digital Deluxe Edition.

Lyrics

Ooh…ooh…
Oh…oh…
Ooh…oh…oh…yeah
Mmm…mmm…mmm…mmm…

This will be
An everlasting love
This will be
The one I’ve waited for
This will be
The first time anyone has loved me, oh…oh…oh…

I’m so glad
He found me in time
And I’m so glad that
He rectified my mind
This will be
An everlasting love for me, whoa, oh

Loving you
Is some kind of wonderful
Because you’ve shown me
Just how much you care
You’ve given me the thrill of a lifetime
And made me believe you’ve got more thrills to spare, oh

This will be
And everlasting love, oh, yes, it will now

You’ve brought a lot of sunshine into my life
You’ve filled me with happiness I never knew
You gave me more joy than I ever dreamed of
And no one, no one can take the place of you

This will be, yes, siree, eternally
Huggin’ and squeezin’ and kissin’ and pleasin’ Together forever through rain or whatever
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you and me
So long as I’m livin’ true love I’ll be givin’, To you I’ll be servin’ ’cause you’re so deservin’

Hey, you’re so deservin’
You’re so deservin’, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The love, the love, the love, the love, the love, the love,
Love, love, love, love
The love, the love, the love, the love, the love, the love,
Love, love
From now on (12x)
