[Verse 1]
When I said, I needed you
You said you would always stay
It wasn't me who changed, but you
And now you've gone away

[Verse 2]
But don't you know that now you're gone
And I'm left here on my own
Now I have to follow you
And beg you to come home

[Chorus]
You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me
That you don't have to love me
But believe me, I'll never tie you down

[Verse 3]
Left alone just a memory
Life seems dead and so unreal
All that's left is loneliness
There's nothing left to feel

[Chorus]
You don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, oh believe me

Oh, you don't have to say you love me
Just be close at hand
You don't have to stay forever
I will understand
Believe me, believe me, oh believe me

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.
