Return to sender. Elvis Presley. Vídeo, letra e información.

Tras su paso por el ejército, Elvis Presley se adentra en los 60, década en la que estrena ‘Return to sender’, un tema de rock & roll suave que no ha dejado de escucharse desde entonces.

Escrita por Winfield Scott y Otis Blackwell y publicada en 1962, formó parte de la película Girls! Girls! Girls! en la que el mismo Elvis la interpretó contándonos, con su media sonrisa y su característico baile a ritmo de rock, como un enamorado escribe una y otra vez a la novia que lo ha despedido de su vida y recibe, una y otra vez, la carta devuelta al remitente…

I gave a letter to the postman,
he put it his sack.
Bright in early next morning,
he brought my letter back.

She wrote upon it:
Return to sender, address unknown.
No such number, no such zone.
We had a quarrel, a lover’s spat
I write I’m sorry but my letter keeps coming back.

So then I dropped it in the mailbox
And sent it special D.
Bright in early next morning
it came right back to me.

She wrote upon it:
Return to sender, address unknown.
No such person, no such so.

This time I’m gonna take it myself
and put it right in her hand.
And if it comes back the very next day
then I’ll understand – the writing on it

Return to sender, address unknown.
No such number, no such zone
