Elvis Has Left the Building

And I Love You So

His Voice always was  as smooth,

As the Blue Suede of his shoes...

Each velvet note and tune, 

Was sung just for me and you.

When I was just a girl,

To his music I did twirl...

In my make believe world,

That's when I had it all.

I can hear My Mother say

As we began to gently sway...

Dont you wish things

Would always be this way.

But that was way back when

In a place I had once been.

Swaying gently to the tune

If only time I could transcend.

Now I listen to His words

That then, I never heard...

And as I slowly turn

I realized I've learned.

The truth of what he sang

With every note a tearful pang,

I can hear again and again.

The truth of what he sang.

Yes, Elvis Has Left the Building...

But ...

He remains forever in Our Memories.

Dedicated To My Mom,

who gave me many, many

Memories
