ABOUT the song, 'As I Love You':
In mid-1958, Shirley recorded two singles that would become classics in the Bassey catalogue. "As I Love You" was released as the B-side of another ballad, "Hands Across the Sea"; It did not sell well at first, but after a chance appearance at the London Palladium things began to pick up. In January 1959, it reached number one and stayed there for four weeks. It thus became Shirley's first number one single.
LYRICS - As I Love You:
I will love you as I love you
All my life
Every moment spent with you
Makes me more content with you
Just as you are
You are all I could pray for
All that you are
That's what I wake up each day for
Every single Touch and tingle
I adore
Every kiss from you to me
Always seems so new to me
Each one warmer Than the one before
As I love you more and more and more
Every single Touch and tingle
I adore
Every kiss from you to me
Always seems so new to me
Each one warmer
Than the one before
As I love you
more
and more
And more
(in the 1969 version repeating the last verse during fade out)
