I've Been Loving You Too Long Lyrics


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 apartWhile 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 prayerAnd 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 dayWhile 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
FADES-
Umm, umm, umm, um-hm
Umm, umm, umm, um-hm
Umm, umm, umm, um-hm

Percy Sledge (born 25 November 1941 in Leighton, Alabama) is a US-American R&B and soul performer. Percy Sledge worked in the fields in Leighton before he worked as an orderly at Colbert County Hospital in Sheffield. By the mid-1960s, Sledge was touring the Southeast with the Esquires Combo on weekends and working at the hospital. A former patient who was a friend of producer Quin Ivy introduced the two, an audition followed, and Sledge was signed to a recording contract.
