Lyrics Percy Sledge

Percy Sledge

My Special Prayer

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 halleluyah

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
