Faded Love


Words & Music:
B. Willis/ J. WillisAs I read the letters that you wrote to me
Well it's you, it's you that I’m thinking of
As I read the lines that to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love
I miss you darlin' more and more everyday
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
And remember our faded love
As I think of the past, all the pleasures that we had
As I watch the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
I miss you darlin' more and more everyday
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat, I still think of you
And remember our faded love Recorded:

Elvis first tried it out more slow & country (as can be heard on "A hundred years from now"), but finally turned it into a country-rock song. Brilliant. Also good guitarwork.
One of my favourite tracks from Elvis Country with a good rocking beat and excellent vocal delivery.
This is such a stellar song and Elvis' rendition of it was splendid. Elvis should have sang this song at more than just a few of his concerts though. I rate every song, arrangement and performance from the "Elvis Country" album 5 Stars.
Solid country effort, but easily one of, if not the weakest song on the Elvis Country LP. A 5 star LP and a 3 star track.
I like it a lot, but I think it is the weakest song on the album. Done & overdone by too many before Elvis.
Elvis Country! one of the best albums. and a rocking song from the album. go E
Luke the guitar man version
For a country song more than okay. I like the fatest version the most.
