Biography

American Country singing star who started out singing rock & roll. Originally a '50s rock & roll singer, Conway Twitty became the reigning country superstar of the '70s and '80s, racking up a record 40 number one hits over the course of two decades. Changed his name in 1957 (borrowed from Conway, Arkansas and Twitty, Texas). With his deep, resonant down-home voice, Twitty was one of the smoothest balladeers to work in Nashville during the country-pop era, but he was also one of the most adventurous. More than any other singer, he was responsible for selling country as an "adult" music, slipping sexually suggestive lyrics into his lush productions, yet never singing misogynist lyrics; by and large, his songs were sensitive and sensual, which is part of the reason why he achieved such a large success. Once Twitty reached the top of the country charts in the late '60s, he stayed there for years on end, releasing a consistent stream of Top Ten hits that both defined and expanded the limitations of country-pop by adding subtle R&B, pop, and rock & roll influences. Though he had some pop success, Twitty remained country to the core; occasionally, his song titles were simply too corny, which was why he retained his popularity until his death in 1993, aged 59. Son [a=Michael Twitty], daughter [a=Joni Twitty], daughter [a=Kathy Twitty], and son [a=Jimmy Twitty]. Acted in the movies Sexpot Goes To College and College Confidential. Owned the Twitty City tourist complex in Hendersonville, Tennessee. Inducted into the C&W Hall of Fame in 1999 Born : September 1, 1933 / Friars Point, Mississippi, United States Died : June 5, 1993 / Springfield, Missouri, United States

LYRICS

Never quite got over you
I wondered if you missed me too
I tried to call a time or two
You were never home
Tried to call again last night
Number's changed, but that's alright
You wouldn't see me anyway
But that's ok, I'll see you.

In my dreams
And they never let me down
The only way that I have left
Of having you around
In my dreams
And they've saved me up 'till now
But it's funny how a fool can see the light
When the sun goes down.

I never quite got through to you
Like all the others seem to do
Got kinda close a time or two
But not for very long
Ain't it funny how your memory makes
Love stronger than the heartaches
Makes me keep on loving you
The way I do when I see you.

In my dreams
And they never let me down
The only way that I have left
Of having you around
In my dreams
And they've saved me up 'till now
But it's funny how a fool can see the light
When the sun goes down
In my dreams
