Percy Sledge

While the choir sang, Ave Maria
Oh 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 sang, 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 right away
Oh if you stay away another hour
I don't think I can last another day While the choir sang
Hallelujah
I was singing with all my heart
Darling please come back and never leave me again
And this will bethe answer to my prayer.
Umm, umm, umm
Umm, umm, umm
Umm, umm, umm
