Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley is, of course, the acknowledged King of contemporary music. Whichever version of The King we choose to remember, whether it's the dynamic, gyrating upstart who took the world by storm in 1956, the charismatic and underrated actor who appeared in over 30 successful feature films or the extraordinary stage presence that was his Las Vegas live performances in the Seventies, it's clear there was and will only ever be one "King".

I used to laugh when I should cry
I used to let these feelings pass me by
But now that I believe them
I got no-one to leave them to me
You see I traded love for what I thought must be free
So I confess my loneliness
And I guess I've lost the best of the year
That I let love slipped through my fingers like a golden breath of air
If I cared I wouldn't be singing this love song of the year
I know the time cannot erase the days
Love is past and I've gone away
From now on I'll make it very clear
Cos' I don't want to write
Another love song of the year
It's a lonely song and not too clear
But to me it's very dear
I guess this song can only be
My feelings went out in the sea of love
To me this has got to be the love song of the year
I know the time cannot erase the days
Love is past and I've gone away
From now on I'll make it very clear
Cos' I don't want to write
Another love song of the year
I used to laugh I used to cry

Loving you, loving you
Makes no difference where I go or what I do
You know that I'll always be loving you
Just you

Don't be blue, don't you be blue

Always true, true to you

You know that I'll always be loving you

Who makes my heart beat like thunder?
Who makes my temperature rise?
Who makes me tremble with wonderful rapture
With one burning glance, from her eyes
Marguerita...
Once I was free as a gypsy
A creature too wild to tame
Then suddenly I saw, Marguerita
And I was caught, like a moth in the flame
Marguerita...is her name
Marguerita...
Her lips have made me her prisoner
A slave to her every command
She captivates me, and intoxicates me
With one little touch of her hand

Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine
Quiet thought come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories,
Sweet memories
Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilight trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened thru the ages just like wine,

Left all these pretty presents that you see before me
Merry Christmas pretty baby, you sure been good to me
Well I haven't had a drink this morning, but I'm all lit up like a Christmas tree

From the distance, you call to me like an oasis
Though your kisses, keep drawing me near
Is your love a mirage that will disappear?
Like a man in the desert, I'm lost
Is this dream just a trick of my imagination?
Though I thirst for your lips, night and day
Is your love a mirage that will fade away?

You know, the landlord rang my front door bell
I let it ring for a long, long spell
I went to the window
I peeped through the blind
And asked him to tell me what was on his mind
He said-
Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey, if you wanna stay here with me
I was cleaned as a screen, and so hard-pressed
I called the woman that I love the best
I finally got my baby about a half past three,
She said I'd like to know what you want with me, I said-
Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get along with me
She screamed and said, what's wrong with you?
From this day on our romance is through
I said tell me, baby, face to face
How could another man take my place?
She said-
Money, honey
Money, honey
Money, honey
If you want to get a long with me
Now, I've learned my lesson and now I know
The sun may shine and the winds may blow

It's a tender lullaby, born of golden sand and sky
The song is new, and it's calling you
Tonight beside the desert palms
Come let me take you in my arms
Come here my serenade, my desert serenade
Wherever lovers dwell, it weaves it's magic spell
Soon a thousand dreams will start,
And romance will fill your heart
My lips conceal, love that's warm and real
Give me a chance to hold you near
You'll see a brand new world appear
So come and hear, my desert serenade, my desert serenade,

My warped and worried mind resorts
To wandering off to ponder things I never talk about
A pretty girl I used to know but wouldn't know if we met face to face
And defying every logic known
I'm wishing the time machine could take me back again
To the wonder of my first love, the old folks tease me 'bout
Referring to her only as my little friend
Somewhere far away and maybe not so far away
The child has grown into a woman of the world
I assume just knowing that she knew so much of life at such a tender age
I learned from her the whispered things the big boys at the pool hall talk about
The thrill and disappointment, fear and shame that first love brings
But oh, how I thought I loved my little friend
The fragrance of the green grass mingled with the scent of love and womanhood.
The moonlight night I kissed and cried and swore I'd never touch another girl
But time moved fast and I moved on and I loved others time and time again
But with each time I thought of her and always gave a little more
a symbol of remembrance for my little friend.
Oh-oh-oh a symbol of the remembrance for my little friend
Oh-oh-oh a symbol of the remembrance for my little friend
Oh-oh-oh a symbol of the remembrance for my little friend.
To wandering off to ponder things I never talk about
A pretty girl I used to know but wouldn't know if we met face to face
And defying every logic known
I'm wishing the time machine could take me back again
To the wonder of my first love, the old folks tease me 'bout
Referring to her only as my little friend
Somewhere far away and maybe not so far away
The child has grown into a woman of the world
I assume just knowing that she knew so much of life at such a tender age
I learned from her the whispered things the big boys at the pool hall talk about
The thrill and disappointment, fear and shame that first love brings
But oh, how I thought I loved my little friend
The fragrance of the green grass mingled with the scent of love and womanhood.
The moonlight night I kissed and cried and swore I'd never touch another girl
But time moved fast and I moved on and I loved others time and time again
But with each time I thought of her and always gave a little more
a symbol of remembrance for my little friend.
Oh-oh-oh a symbol of the remembrance for my little friend
Oh-oh-oh a symbol of the remembrance for my little friend
Oh-oh-oh a symbol of the remembrance for my little friend.

Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Well that long black train got my baby and gone
Train train, comin round, round the bend
Train train, comin round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again (no, not again)
Train train, comin down, down the line
Train train, comin down the line
Well its bringin my baby, cause shes mine all, all mine
(shes mine, all, all mine)
Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Well that long black train got my baby and gone
Train train, comin round, round the bend
Train train, comin round the bend
Well it took my baby, but it never will again (no, not again)
Train train, comin down, down the line
Train train, comin down the line
Well its bringin my baby, cause shes mine all, all mine
(shes mine, all, all mine)
