A Message from Elvis

I wanna thank ya for all your devotion,

your love for me is beyond compare,

the words ya speak about me,

touches me more deeply than I can say,

they fill my heart with so much joy and put a smile upon my face,

so once again I thank y'all for loving me this way.

Elvis the Man

You were the one who taught me to sing

I learned from you the power of song

you taught me to sing from the gut

and in each lyric feel the emotion rise and fall

On stage you entranced us

and moved us with your voice

Your movements and sense of humour

were really out of sight

I don’t understand why they judge you

cos they’ve never walked in your shoes

they don’t know what its like to tread your steps

they don’t know what its like to be you

You brought so much joy and touched so many hearts

With your voice so beautiful, so gentle and so strong

You lifted our spirits time and time again

I’m amazed at all the years you coped with your fame

They look at the image and don’t see the man beneath

the man with deep emotions, trying to cope with his grief

they don’t see the pain and the tears

cos on stage they’re not there

the image is one thing, the human being is another

I’ll remember the way you smiled

the way you laughed and sang

but also I’ll remember Elvis the man

WRITTEN BY MARIA

I love you, Elvis

When I dream of you at night,

I dream of holding you tight,

& kiss you so tender,

& my heart wants to surrender.

Kiss me, kiss me, my heart says,

I love you so much,

but you don´t know it I guess,

I want to feel your touch.

I sometimes miss you,

& feel so lonely,

& there´s so much I wanna do,

do with you only.

Your eyes are more beautiful than Heaven,

without you life´s so lonely,

and when the clock says it´s eleven,

then I belong to you only.

Then I´m in my dreams with you,

laughing & crying just for you,

I can´t find the right words,

to tell you how much being without you hurts.

Instead of that I´m crying,

and thinking "What should I do?",

but I´m never lying,

when I say "Elvis, I love you".

You showed me what love is,

and you sing songs for me,

let me tell you this:

I especially like the song "Singing tree". "

Happy ending" is my favourite song, and I hope I will be happy someday, I could kiss you all day and night long, but don´t walk away.

Elvis, you mean so much to every fan,

especially to me,

you are such a beautiful man,

and I´m sure other fans would agree.

Now this is the end of my story,

I love you no matter what might be,

and I don´t feel sorry,

please sing another song for me!!!

ANOTHER WORLD

Elvis, he once said to me

Another world there has to be

One that's warm, vast and free

And God knows that's where I wanna be.

He looked at me, but didn't cry

Said: I'd like to be where no one dies

No ones lonely or spreads those lies

I smiled at him, into his heart, into his eyes.

Elvis said again to me

Can you imagine what I'd be?

A world where music always chimes

In harmony and perfect rhyme.

I touched his brow, and now he grinned

Wanting peace and bliss within

Where wishing makes things what they are

Like blissful rainbows, and brightest stars.

I touched his hand, and he touched mine

He just refused to sleep.

I'll remember always when Elvis said to me:

Another world there has to be!

He said:

Where joy and love are King and Queen

Where no one says good-bye?

I whispered that might just be Heaven

And no, I wouldn't lie.

With rolling hills to play, with everyone you've ever loved

Not one had gone astray.

Another world, for you for me...for everyone who wants this to be

He fell to sleep, like just a boy, dreaming of some special toy

At once I knew I loved this man, I smiled and slipped away my hand

I believe this "Other world" is where he is today.

And when it's time for me to go, it's there, with him I pray.

Heaven & Elvis

Without you Heaven would be a lonely place,

a place where I wouldn´t like to be,

it would be an endless chase,

to find the perfect harmony.

If you´re not in Heaven,

then I don´t want to be there too,

because Heaven,

is only made for me & you.

That´s just what I feel,

I wanna be in Heaven with you,

If Heaven is real,

then my dreams are coming true.

We have our secrets there,

things that no one else can know,

and I really don´t care,

if others say "You can´t love him, no!"

If you would be in Hell,

I would go there too,

because I only know one Hell,

and that´s being without you.

So Elvis don´t ever leave me,

because I love you,

Please belive me,

I really love you, yes I do.

So what do I have to do,

to kiss you again and again,

to forever be with you

and never let it end?

Elvis, this is about you:

your dancing is unbelieveable,

your eyes are so beautiful and blue,

your voice is sooo loveable.

And your humor is so great,

and your so sweet,

and I hope it´s not too late,

that we can ever again meet.

But this time I won´t leave,

I will stay forever,

please believe,

I want us to stay together.

And Elvis I love you,

I can´t explain it better than this,

my love for you is true,

please give me another kiss!!!

To the tune of in the ghetto

On a cold and gray Tupelo mornin', a poor little baby child is born,

ELvis Aron...

ANd his mother cries,

Because of baby's stillborn twin who's life was through before it began

Jesse Garon...

People don't you understand,

THis child will soon have a band,

As he's gonna be a famous young man some day

Take a good long look at him,

Although he looks so slim,

He's got talent you've never seen nor heard before...

AS the world turns,

And the skinny little boy records a song,

Something about him just seems wrong,

It's his movements,

ANd his hunger burns,

SO he starts to tour across the map,

Singing rock, but never rap,

He's the king...

Then one day, in desperation, the young man makes a film,

HE takes some drugs, and he sings bad songs,

His comeback's good,

But it don't last long,

For his peaks' gone by,

As the crowd gathers round a not so young man,

Wearin' a jumpsuit and a mike in his hand,

He's not got long...

On a very sad Memphis day,

Our beloved king passes away,

Elvis Presley

And the whole world cries...
