Elvis Presley - So Close Yet So Far (From Paradise) - Studio Edit
Музыка
GREAT SONG FROM HARUM SCARUM (HOLIDAY)
So close, yet so far from paradise
I hold, you in my arms, in paradise
Is mine, then you slip away
Like a child at play, and here am I
So close, yet so far from paradise
When you, are close to me, it's paradise
We kiss, oh my love, paradise
Is mine, then suddenly you're gone from me
Like a floating star, I see, and here am I
So close, yet so far from paradise
I reach out for you, but each time I do
I always find you gone
I know love is new, I'll take care of you
In my arms is where you belong
Just, a step away, are we from paradise
Take my hand, come away, to paradise
My love, I want you close to me
I need you desperately, oh here am I
Waiting for you
Here am I
Praying for you
Here am I, so close, yet so far from paradise

This movie was cheesy; but this song is simply one of the most beautiful songs ever, ever.
Give Elvis a song to sing, he will sing it and the song will come alive. Try to cover a song by Elvis and you will see what extraordinary and inimitable skills & charisma he had. He was, is and will always be the greatest!
Old friend , missing you once again.
Best voice ever. I love Elvis ❤❤❤😘😘😘
That voice... unforgettable.
elvs sounds like a angel from heaven
fom paradise was His voice🎶🕊️
I hope people who like "the hits" will find little gems like this one. Just because a song is not well known, does not mean it is a bad song. This is a amazing song!!!!

Elvis' acting is outstanding in this, quite impressive.
Elvis is an extraordinary artist. Handsome as God, talented beyond measure, how can you forget him? Never!
God, he was so beautiful!!
I love all his songs!!
To this day his voice makes me smile and heart flutters. He was a handsome man.
I absolutely adore this song , thank you
Elvis sings in 3D, what a voice, so natural.
One of his better movie songs.
It doesn't matter if the movie or song got good reviews or not, Elvis could sing any song because he sang any song with his heart and soul.... Elvis knew how to entertain and sing his songs from his heart, you could feel it in your own heart....no one can ever compare...... forever in our hearts....❤❤❤❤
He sung effortlessly he'll always be king . Grew up with elvis because my mum loves him truly a legend never be anyone like him . His story is heart breaking

Greatest voice and charisma ever. Nobody comes close to elvis ❤🙏❤ absolutely unique
No one will ever be greater than ELVIS. love his vocals.
The movie didn't get rave reviews and the soundtrack didn't produce any radio hits. You know what? I don't care. I loved the soundtrack and this one should have gotten airtime.

Most People Never heard this Great Elvis Ballad !
I'm sure he was proud of this song !! and I am proud of him!!
This is a great timeless song, that just about anyone can identify with at many times in their life, no matter what their situation in life is. There is a reason that there is only one Real King, and no one has ever been better than Elvis. His life was tragically cut short, but his memory and his music are eternal. I can still remember, driving on Long Island, to play softball, and when I switched through the radio stations when I got to a hard rock station, they too were playing Elvis's songs and I instantly knew something was tragically wrong. But his greatest gifts to the world were his music and his daughter, Lisa Marie.
OH MY MY MY!!!!! When he sings it goes Straight. THRU MY BONES!!!! ONE OF MY FAVORITE! !!!! Can sing to me FOREVER! !!!!! MISS U MAN!!!

Agreed! I have this movie.
Maybe not my favourite Elvis' film but such a wonderful song.
My Goodness, I know he's wearing makeup here, but he's so otherworldly beautiful, isn't he? I could just faint! Back in the day people in show biz had to be, and I can think of some celebs these days that are really attractive, but he takes ALL!
wow, he's unearthly beautiful with makeup on. He couldn't be more handsome! Priscilla said he would come to the dinner table dressed like that at the time he was filming Harum Scarum. And what a beautiful song, too. It's like half ballad, half gospel.
I love this song because I sent this to my long distance boyfriend and he loved the song and made him deeply in love with me.
So amazing am a Kenyan and 50 I so this movie when I was 7 what a great memory!!
What a beautiful song the voice is so great . Perfection this man is.
This is a beautiful song! Beautiful song! Simple like this!
THE VOICE!!!!! - INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!! Simply The Best - Forever The KING!!!!!!!!!

Man, this guy was the king. Looked like a god and sang like an angel.

Although not a favourite of his films, this song is one of my favourites. Always makes me emotional, such a talented man. Gone but never forgotten.

Truly the best soloist ever,there will never be better,sadly missed,still remember the day the world lost him. The films may have been cheesy but they produced some fantastic songs this being one of them.
I am glad that someone can take the time to share his lesser known movies and their songs. Thank you.
This is Brilliant Such a Beautiful Song Sung by The Greatest. Elvis Aaron Presley RIP king 👑 of magic Music.
Next time Priscilla puts together an album with an orchestra she should use songs such as these ie the so underrated ones, of which there are many. This song would make a great title also. The vocals are sublime.
what a voice, he is all in to this song his face shows it. how i love this man.
love Elvis for ever
It's so fascinating when a song transcends a movie and takes on a life of it's own.

Just saw Harum Scarum and although it is not one of the best Elvis movies, this song is so beautiful and the best song from the movie! He sings it with so much passion ❤️ He wasn’t called “The King” for nothing. This song should have been released as a single.

I never much liked the movie Harem Scarum, so this song and scene from the movie I haven't seen since I was a Child, going to the movies to see this film. But oh wow, there is something about this scene and song from Elvis, that is so different from his other movie scenes. I have never seen this side of Elvis before, and him singing this song is just divine.

Elvis could sing a very ordinary song, and make it special, he was incredible and I loved all of his movies and know all the songs from all of them.
I heard this for the first time when I visited Graceland for the very first time in 2017. It stuck with me since. He has so many underrated gems.
I love this song. Elvis sang it with such feeling and emotion. It's very good for a movie song. It shouldve been a top 10 hit for him. I hope it was released as a single. This is a beautiful sad song. I can just feel the soul and energy in elvis' voice. Great song by the king, too bad it wasn't a hit.

This song he sings is soooo beatiful
The best song from the movie Harum Scarum - Love it!
I think of myself as an Elvis fan, I know I have listened to and know many an Elvis song but this one slipped into the depths of my mind until I heard it again on a UK TV advert and now I cannot stop playing it. Great song.
