Love me tender,
Love me Sweet
Never Let me go.
You have made my life complete,
And I love you so.

Love me tender,
Love me true.
All my dreams fulfil.
For my darling I love you,
And I always will.

Love me tender,
Love me...

    Elvis Presley performed "Love Me Tender" (the updated "Aura Lee") on The Ed Sullivan Show on September 9, 1956, shortly before the single's release and about a month before the movie, Love Me Tender (for which the reworded song was originally written) was released. On the following day, RCA received 1 million advance orders, making it a gold record before it was even released. The studio, 20th Century Fox, originally wanted to call the movie The Reno Brothers but instead re-titled it Love Me Tender to capitalize on the song's popularity.
