[Verse 1]
Because of love, I'm a hundred feet tall
I can bounce this world like a little old ball
Well, heaven and earth are now all mine
I've jumped to the moon from cloud number nine
Because, because, because, because of love

[Verse 2]
Because of love, I'm a mighty big man
I hold the sun in the palm of my hand
Just one leap I can cross the seas
Jump over mountains and fly over trees
Because, because, because, because of love

[Bridge]
Well, I found love, I found love
At all that I can say
Oh I'll never, never, I'll never, never
Never let it get away

[Verse 3]
Because of love, I'm the happiest guy
And life is sweet as cherry cream pie
Well, heaven and earth are now all mine
I've jumped to the moon from cloud number nine
Because, because, because, because of love
Because, because, because, because of love

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.
