The song was first released on a single by Arthur Prysock (1963). A large number of covers of the song appeared, including a big hit for Percy Sledge (1969 and 1974). There was also a modest hit by the Dutch music group Big, Black & Beautiful in 2008. In addition, several other covers appeared in foreign charts. The song is about a man who hears a choir sing the song Ave Maria. He sings it with all his heart. He sends a special prayer to heaven, with the wish that his beloved will come back to him. Lyrics 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 be (this will be) The answer to my prayer Umm, umm, umm Umm, umm, umm Umm, umm, umm
