I've Been Loving You Too Long To Stop Now... Otis Redding

As most of you know, I love all kinds of music from all different eras.
I was listening to music with my parents this evening as they reminisced about how old they were the first time they heard each song that came through the speakers.
One song that I've always loved and have listened to many times caught my attention, and I haven't been able to get it out since.

The Song: I've Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now) by Otis Redding

Here are the Lyrics:

You are tired .. and you want to be free
My love is growing stronger, as you become a habit to me
[Ohh] I've been loving you a little too long
I dont wanna stop now

With you my life huh
Has been so wonderful
I can't stop now

You are tired .. and your love is growing cold
My love is growing stronger as our affair, affair grows old
I've been loving you a little too long
I don't want to stop now

ohh
ohh
ohh

I've been loving you a little too long
I don't wanna stop now

ohh
ohh
ohh

And don't make me stop now
Oh baby
I'm down on my knees
Please, don't make me stop now
I love you, I love you, I love you with all my heart
And I can't stop now
Please, please, please don't make me stop now
yeah yeah yeah
I love you
I love you
Talkin' 'bout heart and soul
That I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
Good God almighty but I love you
I love you
I love you
