Biography

American singer and songwriter, born February 9 1942, Brooklyn, New York City. Formed vocal group Co-Sines in 1957 whilst at High School and adopted the stage name Carole King. Dated [a=Neil Sedaka] at this time. Met [a=Gerry Goffin] at Queens College with whom she formed a songwriting partnership and married in 1960. Their first big hit was "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" by The Shirelles in 1961. Goffin and King split personally and professionally in 1968 (children: [a=Louise Goffin], Sherry Goffin Kondor), although they did work together later on. Carole King was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1987 and in 2002 became a recipient of the Songwriters Hall of Fame "Johnny Mercer Award". She formed [a401287] with [a252395] and [a318609]. She married Larkey in 1968, but The City was short-lived and disbanded after one album. In 1970 she toured with James Taylor and launched her solo career with "Writer" and then the classic "Tapestry". The hit albums continued and in 1976 she divorced from Charles Larkey (children: Molly & Levi). In 1977 she married songwriting partner Rick Evers. Evers died a year later from a heroin overdose. She is active in environmental issues and more recently campaigned on behalf of the US Democratic Party, whilst continuing to write songs and perform.

LYRICS

I wrote you a letter the other day
And I told you I was happy for you
And your new love
Now there was much more
I wanted to say
But it's hard for me to get over
My last bit of pride

But if you read between the lines
You will know that I still love you
Oh, and I'll love you forever
And always

When we were together
I never thought
You would ever be anything else
But a friend and a true love
But time has thrown its net
And now I'm caught
And I'm helpless to tell you
How much I miss you by my side

But if you read between the lines
You will know that I still love you
Oh, and I'll love you forever
And always

Do you remember smiling at me
When I looked at you
And I first saw you
And I wanted you
And you wanted me
But it's over now and I just can't see
How I'm gonna live without you

But if you read between the lines
You will know that I still love you
Oh, and I'll love you forever
And always
