Elvis Presley I Love You Because
Written by Leon Payne. Elvis recorded it during his first commercial recording session at Sun Records on July 5, 1954, along with Scotty Moore and Bill Black, and his own guitar. Apparently five takes were taped by Sam Phillips, but none were released commercially. RCA released a single of the song in September 1956 using a splice of takes #3 and #5; that master was released on the Elvis Presley LP. It is available on The King of Rock n Roll: The Complete 50s Masters, FTD Elvis Presley, and The Sun Sessions.




I love you because you understand dear
Every single thing I try to do.
You're always there to lend a helping hand, dear.
I love you most of all because you're you.

No matter what the world may say about me,
I know your love will always see me through.
I love you for the way you never doubt me.
But most of all I love you 'cause you're you.

No matter what may be the style or season,
I know your heart will always be true.
I love you for a hundred thousand reasons,
But most of all I love you 'cause you're you

  • Elvis tops... but this song belongs to Jim :)

  • Just found out the title of this song. My Granddad always used to sing it to me when I was a child. But unfortunately he passed away last weekend, so I'm thinking of suggesting it for the funeral.
