Sobre el álbum
Este álbum de 1971 es una colección de canciones que muestran la faceta más romántica y de baladista de Elvis Presley. Una obra para fans en la discografía de Elvis Presley. Por lo tanto, en 'Love Letters from Elvis', el artista, ya confirmado como una superestrella de Las Vegas, se centra en las grandes canciones de amor. Es un disco de un tono a menudo melancólico y crepuscular.
La producción del álbum es grandilocuente, con suntuosos arreglos de cuerda y coros que envuelven la voz del cantante. Como resultado, el sonido es muy característico de su etapa en Las Vegas.
A diferencia de otras de sus obras de la época, la selección de temas de este disco es a menudo considerada irregular y no está entre sus mejores trabajos. Pese a ello, la interpretación de Elvis Presley sigue siendo de una gran calidad.
'Love Letters from Elvis' es un trabajo que deleitó a sus seguidores más amantes de la balada, pero que carece de la fuerza y la autenticidad de sus grandes obras maestras.

Letra
In a little while you're leavin' Starting on the journey home Soon I'll be alone, the one who loves you La la la la la, somewhere in the heart of Rome I'll make a wish in every fountain Say a prayer that you'll return Minutes I'll be counting May the fire of love still burn I'll keep your picture by my pillow And pretend I'm not alone Make believe that you are with me La la la la la, in the heart of Rome Suddenly the tears are falling As we hear the whistle blow Hold me very close before you leave me La la la la la, somewhere in the heart of Rome I'll make a wish in every fountain Say a prayer that you'll return Minutes I'll be counting May the fire of love still burn I'll keep your picture by my pillow And pretend I'm not alone Make believe that you are with me La la la la la, in the heart of Rome I'll make a wish in every fountain Say a prayer that you'll return Minutes I'll be counting May the fire of love still burn I'll keep your picture by my pillow And pretend I'm not alone Make believe that you are with me La la la la la, in the heart of Rome - Only Believe

Letra
Wish I was an apple dangling from a tree Every time you'd pass me by you'd take a bite of me I wish I was a bluebird I'd never fly away I'd sit up on your shoulder baby and sing to you all day Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home Cindy Cindy Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home to me I wrote it in a letter, carved it on a tree Told it to a honeycomb, told it to a bee Told them that I love you, they all know its true Say it till the cows come home until it gets to you Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home Cindy Cindy Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home to me Need you in the morning to start the coffee pot Need you in the afternoon to fan me when I'm hot Need you in the evening when supper time is through What I'm really tryin' to say is I can't get enough of you Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home Cindy Cindy Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home to me If I were a musician I'd harp on just one thing You should never play my harp the way you pluck a string If only you would love me say it and tell me so I need two charms about me baby to have the whole world know Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home Cindy Cindy Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home to me Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home Cindy Cindy Come on home Cindy Cindy, Come on home to me - I'll Never Know
