    This is my crying song now. My sister is fighting a valiant battle. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in Jan 2020. She has lived longer than expected. But to think of losing her, I don't know how I will go on. This song helps cry out my heartbreak. Thank you Percy.

Prayers to you and your family...take care of yourself and each other... remember Grief has no time limit. ...

Now she's gone and I find myself doing the same with tears running down my face. Music can put you right back in a place you use to be many many years ago. 🎶❤

    While the choir sang,
    Ave Marie I was singing with all my heart
    And I sent a special prayer, up to heaven
    That you'll return to me before I fall apart
    While the choir sings hallelujah
    I was singing with all my heart
    Darling please come back and never leave me again
    And this will be (this will be) the answer to my prayer
    And I'll wait, here for the answer
    That you'll come back, come back I pray
    For if you stayed, away another hour
    Well I don't think I could last another day
    While the choir sings hallaluyah
    I was singing with all my heart
    Darling please, come back and never leave me again
    And this will be an answer to my prayer
    Umm, umm, umm, um-hm
    Umm, umm, umm, um-hm
    Umm, umm, umm, um-hm

    At 58 years old. When my father played his music he played mostly Percy Sledge. Al Green. Sam & Dave. Sam Cooke and so on and so on and so on. I still know mostly all the songs by heart. My father passed away 20 years ago and now my brother passed away 5 months ago and when I hear this song I think of my brother.
    Rest in peace DADDY and MAC

When I got my first job in 1971, I bought the 33rpm album containing this song for $2 with my first paycheck. I still keep the album, 47 years later together with many other beautiful albums I bought at the time. This is timeless music.
