[Verse 1]
When we kiss, my heart's on fire
Burning with a strange desire
And I know, each time I kiss you
That your heart's on fire too

[Verse 2]
So, my darling, please surrender (surrender)
All your love so warm and tender (surrender)
Let me hold you in my arms, dear
While the moon shines bright above

[Verse 3]
All the stars will tell the story
Of our love and all its glory
Let us take this night of magic
And make it a night of love

[Outro]
Won't you please surrender to me (surrender)
Your lips, your arms, your heart, dear (surrender)
Be mine forever
Be mine tonight

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.
