Robert Knight was a protégé of Mac Gayden and Buzz Cason, who wrote the song for him. A cover of this by English band Love Affair, reached #1 on the UK charts in 1968, relegating Knight's original to #40. However, the Knight version was reissued in the UK in 1974 and reached #19. Mac Gayden, who co-wrote the song, recorded it on his album Skybird. Gayden was a session guitarist who was once a member of the country supergroup Area Code 615. (thanks, Tony - Devon, England, for above 2) Love Affair used sessions musicians rather than the band itself on their version. The only member of the group who performed on it was their 16-year-old vocalist Steve Ellis. In an interview with Shindig magazine, Ellis said, "The general opinion seemed to be that I should do it with an orchestra and then give it a Phil Spector-type production. Obviously I felt odd without the band being in the studio but it was for the good of all involved. Two takes and it was done. The band were not too concerned about this approach to things." Love affair went onto achieve 5 more UK Top-20 hits on which the group did get to perform. Jazz vocalist Jaime Cullum's 2004 version was the 8th version of the song to make the UK charts, reaffirming the song's status as the second most covered track in UK chart history (only "Unchained Melody" with 9 versions can beat it). Since Love Affair hit the top alongside Robert Knight's US original in 1968 there have been chart covers by Gloria Estefan and The Cast From Casualty among others - this latter version was the only other version to go Top 10. The 1974 reissue of this song was Knight's last chart success. He later pursued a career in chemical research. (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England, for above 3) In 2006, this was used in TV commercials for Pringles Crisps.
Hearts go astray
Leaving hurt when they go
I went away
Just when you needed me so
Filled with regret
I come back beggin you
Forgive, forget
Wheres the love we once knew?
Open up your eyes
Then youll realize
Here stand with my
Everlasting love
Need you by my side
Want to be your bride
Youll never be denied
Everlasting love
From the very start
Open up your heart
Be a lasting part of
Everlasting love
When lifes river flows
No one really knows
Till someones there to show
The way to lasting love
Like the sun that shines
You always will be mine
Its eternal love
When the other loves are gone
Ours will be strong
We have our very own
Everlasting love
Open up your eyes
Then youll realize
Here I stand with my
Everlasting love
Need you by my side
Want to be your bride
Youll never be denied
Everlasting love
From the very start
Be a lasting part of
Everlasting love
Open up your eyes
Then youll realize
Here I stand with my
Everlasting love
Need you by my side
Want to be your bride
Youll never be denied
