Padre... Elvis recorded at RCA's Nashville studios on May 15, 1971.
Written by: French composers Jacques LaRue and Alain Romans, English lyrics by Paul Francis Webster. Lyrics: The day that we wed you blessed us and said
May heaven bestow you grace
There in that holy place
We shared our first embrace
Our cottage was small but richer than all
The palaces of the king
All day the birds would sing
Our hearts were filled with spring
Padre, padre
What happened to our love so true
Padre, oh padre
In my grief I turn to you
Then he came along and sang her his song
And won her with honey lies
He of the fiery eyes
Now it's my heart that cries
So I kneel pray the hours away
And weary my heart has grown
Wondering where love has flown
Counting my beads alone
Padre, oh padre
Please tell me how such things can be
Padre, oh padre
Pray for my love and me
