The WONDER OF YOU "Live" ! (IMG:http://www.elvis-tkc.com/forums/uploads/1264446516/gallery_21960_29_20989.jpg) Elvis Version Elvis Presley released it as a single on April 20, 1970. Its b-side song was "Mama Liked the Roses." In the U.S., both songs charted at #9 together in the spring of 1970. "The Wonder of You" was one of his most successful records in the UK ever, topping the UK Singles Chart for six weeks in the summer of that year. This was the 59th Top 40 hit of his career. "The Wonder of You" was one of about thirty five songs he would play live in concert, never recording it in a studio. The song went all the way to #1 on Billboard's adult contemporary chart for Presley. It was the first of three singles during his lifetime that were recorded live in concert in Las Vegas, Nevada in February 1970.

WONDER OF YOU ~ "LYRICS" (words & music by Baker Knight) When no-one else can understand me When everything I do is wrong You give me love and consolation You give me hope to carry on And you're always there to lend a hand In everything I do That's the wonder The wonder of you And when you smile the world is brighter You touch my hand and I'm a king Your kiss to me is worth a fortune Your love for me is everything I guess I'll never know the reason why You love me as you do That's the wonder The wonder of you -------------------- |
