Elvis Presley I Was The One

Elvis Presley I Was The One
Written by Aaron Schroeder, Claude DeMetrius, Hal Blair, and Bill Pepper. Elvis recorded it January 11, 1956 at RCAs Nashville studios. Backed with Heartbreak Hotel, I Was The One was the first RCA release of new material for Elvis. The single had a 16-week stay on Billboards Top 100 chart, peaking at #23, and reached #11 on the Country Disc Jockey Chart. It sold over 1,000,000 copies. Elvis sang this song on his fourth appearance on Stage Show on February 18, 1956 and during his last appearance on Louisiana Hayride on December 16, 1956. This son is available on Elvis: Worldwide 50 Gold Award Hits, Volume 1, For LP Fans Only, A Valentine Gift For You, Elvis 56, The King of Rock n Roll-The Complete 50s Masters, and The 50 Greatest Love Songs, which is where this version is from.

I was the one who taught her to kiss
The way that she kisses you now
And you know the way she touches your cheek,
Well, I taught her how.

I was the one who taught her to cry
When she wants you under her spell.
The sight of her tears drives you out of your mind,
I taught her so well.

And then one day
I had my love as perfect as could be.
She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried,
And it was all for me.

I, I'll never know who taught her to lie.
Now that it's over and done,
Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?
I was the one.

And then one day
I had my love as perfect as could be.
She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried,
And it was all for me.

I'll never know who taught her to lie.
Now that it's over and done,
Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?
I was the one.
