10 Song Meanings Fans Can't Accept

Whitney Houston was responsible for taking "I Will Always Love You" and turning it into a bonafied classic. Though originally a mild hit for Dolly Parton, the song didn't become truly extraordinary until it featured the powerful pipes of Mrs. Houston. She sings the tune with such conviction that most people don't even know it's a breakup song.

While the title might lead you to think otherwise, the entire song is about moving on from a relationship that seems to be on the fringes. Though it pains Houston to leave her man, she will still keep him in her heart throughout the rest of her days. Love may be at the center of this song, but the couple still stays apart by the end of the tune.

Then again, most people don't listen past the chorus, leaving many to utilize this song in all kinds of romantic occasions from weddings to proms and everything in between. If anything, it's a testament to Houston's performance that the sheer power of her voice led many people to forget the finer details of the song's message.

This modern classic has been speaking to the souls of fans for years, but don't forget to overlook the sadness behind some of these lyrics.
