Elvis Presley Loving You
Written by Jerry Lieber and Mike Stoller. Elvis recorded it in February 1957 at Radio Recorders. It is available on the Loving You soundtrack; and the King of Rock and Roll-Complete 50s Masters, which is where this version is from. An uptempo version of this song was used as the title tune of the film, but this is not that version.
I will spend my whole life through
Loving you, just loving you.
Winter, summer, spring-time, too,
Loving you, loving you.
Makes no difference where I go or what I may do.
You know that I'll always be loving you.
Just you and,
If I'm seen with someone new,
Don't be blue, don't you be blue.
I'll be faithful I'll be true;
Always true, true to you.
There is only one for me, and you know who.
You know that I'll always be loving you.
Loving You was Elvis' second film produced by Hal Wallis and directed by Hal Kanter; it was released in 1957. Co-stars were Lizabeth Scott, Wendell Corey, and Dolores Hart. Elvis' original band members, Scotty Moore, Bill Black, and D. J. Fontana are also in the movie, as well as the Jordanaires. His character was named Deke Rivers, f/k/a Jimmy Tompkins.

Rosiemundo: I don't believe this is an Elvis song. I can't place the lyrics for any of his songs. What did you hear it on?
