[Verse]
God bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you
Let it be me

Don't take this Heaven from one
Well, if you must cling to someone
Now and forever
Let it be me

[Pre-Chorus]
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love
Tell me, what would life be?

[Chorus]
So never leave me lonely
Just tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me

[Pre-Chorus]
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Oh ,without your sweet love
Tell me, what would life be?

[Chorus]
So never leave me lonely
Just tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me

And that you'll always
Let it be me

[Chorus]
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be 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.
