I REMEMBER ELVIS PRESLEY
(Bakker / Dunhills / Ouwens)


Danny Miller - 1977






Last night I turned radio on for the midnight news
Suddenly I thought I died of a broken heart
When I heard the announcer say...


"Ladies and gentlemen, the King is dead
Elvis Presley just died in a hospital in Memphis, Tennessee
Forty-Two years on this planet, but he'll be here forever"


I remember Elvis Presley
Lord, how I love to hear him sing!
So I'll adore him just forever
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 forever
Good luck songs we need 'em ever
Again, again I'll play your songs
'Cause in my mind you haven't gone


Are you lonesome tonight? Do you miss him tonight?
Tell me, dear, are you lonesome tonight?


I remember Elvis Presley
Lord, how I love to hear him sing!
So I'll adore him just forever
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 don't know where or when
There'll be a day we'll meet again


Wise man say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love again


Elvis Presley, I wanna thank you 
For all the happiness you gave so many people
All over the world during many, many years
I remember the DJ 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 forever
He's just a golden memory
