Phoenix - The Elvis Forum

colonel snow wrote:IN MY WAY - This song is short and misses a beautiful refrain that goes a little faster,

After the line, "tomorrow you may cry, but I'll be true to you in my way" comes:

A LITTLE FASTER TEMPO:
Yes, in my way I'll be true
Though you may feel I love someone new

ORIGINAL TEMPO
Your lips are warm as the springtime
You're sweet as the flowers in May
But when it's December, I hope you'll remember
I was true to you in my way.

Thanks to Christopher Brown for pointing out the difference between the lyrics-sheet and the recorded (master) version by Elvis.

The song was suggested for scene127 in the movie Wild in the country according to the script page 95. The original version of this song was recorded in the 50’s by Tom Glazer (Young Peoples Record 436)
Later on the song was replaced by Husky dusky day - sung in duet with Irene (Hope Lange) while driving in her car back from university (scene 127).
