Percy Sledge - Gospel

My Special Prayer

While the choir sang, Ave Maria
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
For 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 be (this will be) the answer to my prayer
