I've Lost You

Elvis Presley Lyrics Words & Music by Howard / Blaikly Elvis Presley Lyrics

Lying by your side I watch you sleeping
And in your face the sweetness of a child
Murmuring the dreams you won't recapture
Though it will haunt the corners of you mind

I've Lost though you're near me
And your body's still this kind
I've lost you on a journey,
But I can't remember where or when

Who can tell when summer turns to autumn
And who can point the moment love grows cold
Softly without pain the joy is over
Though why it's gone will neither of us know

Oh, I've lost you yes, I've lost you
I can't reach you anymore
We ought to talk it over now
But reason can't stand in for feeling, oh

Six o'clock the baby will be crying
And you will stumble, sleeping to the door
In the chill and solemn gray of morning
We play the parts that we have learned to well

Oh I've lost you, oh, I've lost you
Oh, You won't admit it so
I've lost you on a journey,
But I can't remember where or when no more

Oh, I've lost you yes, I've lost you
I can't reach you anymore
We ought to talk it over now
But reason can't stand in for feeling, oh

Oh, I've lost you yes, I've lost you
I can't reach you anymore
We ought to talk it over now
But reason can't stand in for feeling, oh

Studio version:

I've Lost You 
- Howard - Blaikley - 

Lying by your side i watch you sleepin' 
And in your face the sweetness of a child 
Murmuring a dream you won't recapture 
Though it will haunt the corners of your mind 
Oh, I've lost you though you're near me 
And your body's still is kind 
I've lost you on the journey 
But I can't remember where or when 

Oh, who can tell when summer turns to autumn 
And who can point the moment love grows cold? 
Softly without pain the joy is over 
Though why its gone we neither of us know 
Oh, I've lost you, yes, I've lost you 
I can't reach you anymore 
We ought to talk it over now 
But reason can't stand in for feeling, oh 

Oh, I've lost you, yes I've lost you 
I can't reach you anymore 
We ought to talk it over now 
But reason can't stand in for feeling, 
Six o'clock, the baby will be crying 
And you will stumble sleeping to the door 
In the chill and sullen grey of morning 
We play the parts that we have learned too well 

Oh, I've lost you, oh, I've lost you 
Though you won't admit it's so 
I can't reach you anymore 
I've lost you on the journey 
But I can't remember where or when 

* Oh, I've lost you, yes I've lost you 
I can't reach you anymore 
We ought to talk it over now 
But reason can't stand in for feeling, oh 

Oh, oh 
* Repeat

June 4, 1970 - Elvis begins five days of recording at RCA's Studio B in Nashville, reporting each evening at 6.00pm and working until the dawn hours. The decision to follow up the magnificent sessions in Memphis by going back to RCA's Nashville studio and hiring Nashville musicians, must have puzzled quite a few people at the time. However, as Chip Moman's Memphis studio had folded, both RCA and Felton Jarvis must have been pleased to see the situation return to what it had been before - RCA because of administrative differences with Chip Moman, and Jarvis because he would once more be in total control again. Felton Jarvis had quit RCA in the beginning of 1970, and from the June sessions onwards would work for Elvis exclusively, both in the recording studios and with live recordings. ln this capacity Jarvis supervised all the arrangements such as booking studios, hiring musicians, and staying in touch with the various publishing companies and RCA

July, After the marathon session, 35 masters in 5 days, in Nashville, Elvis enjoyed himself until he had to go west for the upcoming Las Vegas engagement. On June 22 he bought three snow mobiles, which were able to drive the Graceland grass. He went to Nashville, maybe to review and repair some recordings, he stayed in Dallas for a couple of days and flew back to Memphis as 'John Carpenter', together with Richard Davis and Charlie Hodge. Until he went to California he saw screenings in the Memphian every night.

Elvis Presley Video Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD

Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.

This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.

The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
