Pat Boone
Love Letters In The Sand
Words by Nick and Charles Kenny/Music by J. Fred Coots

-the # 11 song in the 1955-1959 rock era
-was # 1 for 7 weeks in 1957

On a day like today
We passed the time away
Writing love letters in the sand

How you laughed when I cried
Each time I saw the tide
Take our love letters from the sand

You made a vow that you would ever be true
But somehow that vow meant nothing to you

Now my broken heart aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand

Now my broken heart aches
With every wave that breaks
Over love letters in the sand

Pat Boone with those white patent leather shoes, what style! He was the "All American Boy"..even Mom and Pop approved of him. The tunes he sang, such as April love and Love letters in the sand, made us sway ~ After starring in the movie April Love he caught our attention even more. He does a good acting job playing the misunderstood, delinquent teenager.
