I Can't Stop Loving You
Elvis Presley · Aloha From Hawaii Via Satellite
So IÂ’ve made up my mind
To live in memory
Of such an old lonesome time
I canÂ’t stop wanting you
ItÂ’s useless to say
So IÂ’ll just live my life
In dreams of yesterday.
Those happy hours
That we once knew
Though long ago,
They still make me blue
They say that time
Heals a broken heart
But time has stood still
Since weÂ’ve been apart
I Can't Stop Loving You
