[Chorus]
Ku‘u ipo I love you more today
More today than yesterday
But I love you less today
Less than I will tomorrow

[Verse 1]
See the sweet Hawaiian rose
See it blossom see it grow
That's the story of our love
Ever since we said hello

[Chorus]
Ku‘u ipo I love you more today
More today than yesterday
But I love you less today
Less than I will tomorrow

[Verse 2]
As the years go passing by
We'll recall our wedding day
I will be there by your side
You will always hear me say

[Chorus]
Ku‘u ipo I love you more today
More today than yesterday
But I love you less today
Less than I will tomorrow

[Outro]
Ku‘u ipo,ku‘u ipo, you're my Hawaiian sweetheart
Ku‘u ipo,ku‘u ipo, you're my Hawaiian sweetheart

Elvis Presley

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
