Starting today
I'm teaching my heart
Not to ache anymore
Just 'cause we're apart

No more will I dream
Of your sweet loving ways
Gonna learn to forget you
Starting today

And when memories haunt me
And the tears starts to flow
I'll just think of the sorrow
You caused me to know

No more for the past
To return will I pray
Gonna live for tomorrow
Starting today
Starting today
Recorded: 1961/03/12, first released on Something for Everybody

Elvis sure could sing ballads like no one else. In the 50's, Elvis said that Pat Boone was the best singer of ballads. It probably wasn't true then and by 1961 there was no doubt it wasn't true. Elvis, if he wasn't already, was now the best vocalist when it came to ballads (and rock n' roll and blues and gospel, etc). This one doesn't knock your socks off like "There's Always Me", but it is very good. 4 stars
