Separate WaysElvis Presley

Songwriter: Richard Mainegra Red West

[Verse 1]
I see a change as come in to our lives
It's not the way that it used to be
And it's not too late to realize our mistake
We're just not right for each other

[Verse 2]
Love has slipped away left us only friends
We almost seem like strangers
All that's left between us are the memories we share
Of times we thought we cared for each other

[Chorus]
There's nothing left to do but go our separate ways
And pick up all the pieces left behind us
And maybe someday, somewhere along the way
Another love will find us

[Verse 3]
Some day when she's older, maybe she will understand
Why her mom and dad are not together
The tears that she will cry when I have to say goodbye
Will tear at my heart forever

[Chorus]
There's nothing left to do but go our separate ways
Pick up all the pieces left behind us
And maybe someday, somewhere along the way
Another love will find us

Wow wow woa wow, Wow wow woa wow, Wow wow woa wow
Wow wow woa wow

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.
