To Make Love Sweeter for YouJerry Lee Lewis

Songwriter: Glenn Sutton Jerry Kennedy

Producer: Jerry Kennedy

Well, I'd like to send an orchid at the start of every day
For flowers show more beauty than words could ever say
You've done so much for my world till all I want to do
Is try my best in every way to make love sweeter for you

A thousand special compliments I'd pay to you each day
Your ears would never tire of all the sweet things I would say
You never would be lonely, honey, you never would be blue
'Cause my one aim in life would be to make love sweeter for you

You given me the faith that took to make my dreams come true
That's why I want to live and breathe my every breath for you
You've cleared the windows of my life and now that I see through
I'll do my best in every way to make love sweeter for you
I'll do my best in every way to make love sweeter for you

Jerry Lee Lewis

Jerry Lee Lewis was a leading figure in the popularization of rock & roll during the 1950s. He was first signed to Sun Records in 1956 where he was labelmates with Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, and other early rock artists. Of those musicians, however, he was the only piano player and combined with his heavy-handed playing style, sexually suggestive lyrics, and provocative stage antics he came to epitomize the rebelliousness of the genre.

He rose to international fame for his 1957 versions of the songs “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On.”

Lewis' popularity rapidly tumbled, however, when in 1958, when at the age of 22, he married his 13-year-old cousin. Though this scandal continued to tarnish his image, Lewis never retired from music. As of October 2015, he continues to perform live.
