You were my first love
the love I started to know
as a young girl
discovering desires
waiting for love to grow
Young tender love
so true of heart
if it were ever lost
forever we'd drift apart
A delightful love
making rosy the color
in everything you see
a world of happiness
is what you give to me
Forever my heart lives
in our first love
the world changes
as does our lives.
but hearts
beating in memories
forever young...
makes the heart sing

Born James Loden in 1929 in Alabama,
Sonny played on sports teams in school.
He served during the Korean war,
where he was used as an entertainer.
On release, he started recording
for Capitol Records in the early 1950s,
and had some Country hits.
He became huge with his 1956 #1 song
"Young Love".
The next big phase of his career started
in 1963 with "The Minute You're Gone".
The late 50s were interesting even tho
further hits were scarce.
Capitol constantly issued singles
and albums, with mixed success.
