Last night I turned the radio on for the midnight news

Suddenly I thought I'd died of a broken heart

When I heard the announcer say:

The great rock singer Elvis Presley, also known as the King

Just died in a hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, USA

At the age of forty-two years.

I remember Elvis Presley, Lord how I love to hear him sing

So I'll adore him just for ever for he's the one and only "King".

I remember Elvis Presley, and he won’t ever set me free

Like he was singing "Now or never”, he's just a golden memory.

Good luck charm is not for ever

Good luck songs we need 'em ever

Again, again I'll play your songs

'Cause in my mind you haven't gone.

I remember Elvis Presley, Lord how I love to hear him sing

So I'll adore him just for ever for he's the one and only "King".

I remember Elvis Presley, and he won’t ever set me free

Like he was singing "Now or never”, he's just a golden memory.

My dear friend I won't forget you

When I need you I can hear you

“King” though I dont know where or when

There'll be a day we meet again.

(Zitat aus: ‘Can’t help falling in Love’)

Elvis Presley, I wanna thank you for all the happiness

You gave so many people all over the world

During many, many years.

Ha, I remember the disc-jockey was playing "Jailhouse Rock"

When I had my first date with a beautiful girl

And since that evening you've been my friend, Elvis !

I remember Elvis Presley, Lord how I love to hear him sing

So I'll adore him just for ever he's just a golden memory.
