The Platters

The Platters were one of the most successful vocal groups of the early rock and roll era. Their distinctive sound was a bridge between the pre-rock Tin Pan Alley tradition and the burgeoning new genre. The act went through several personnel changes, with the most successful incarnation comprising lead tenor Tony Williams, David Lynch, Paul Robi, Herb Reed, and Zola Taylor. The group had 40 charting singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart between 1955 and 1967, including four no. 1 hits. more »

Only because you're gentle
Only because you're sweet
I grow so sentimental
Anytime that we meet

Only because you're smiling
When others seem to frown
Strange how my heart keeps smiling
Only when you're around

The others may bring me excitement
It's just for a day
I know now for sure
What that night meant
Our love is here to stay

[VERSE 4]
Only because you guide me
I give my heart to you
Heaven is here beside me
Only because of you

Others may bring me excitement
It's just for a day
I know now for sure
What that night meant
Our love is here to stay

[repeat VERSE 4]
