“You’ll Be Back (Every Night In My Dreams)” is a poignant country ballad that has resonated with listeners for decades. Written by Wayland Holyfield and Johnny Russell, the song was initially recorded by Russell in 1978. However, it would find its greatest commercial success in the hands of the legendary country vocal group, The Statler Brothers.

Released as the third single from their 1981 album “Years Ago,” the Statlers’ version quickly climbed the country charts, becoming a signature song in their extensive repertoire. Their signature harmonies and emotional delivery transformed the track into a timeless classic, capturing the universal experience of longing and the bittersweet hope of reunion.
