I've been loving you
Too long, to stop now
You were tied
And you want to be free
My love is grown stronger
As you become a habit to me
Ooo, been loving you, too long
I don't wanna stop, now
Oh, no
With you my life
Has been so wonderful
I can't stop, now
You were tied
And your love is growing cold
My love is going stronger
As our affair, affair, grow old
I've been loving you, oh too long, long
To stop now
Ooh, ooh-oh
I've been loving you-ooo-ooo
A l'il too longer on
I don't wanna stop it, now
Ooh, ooh
Don't make me stop, then
Ooh, beggin' you
Down on my knees
Please don't make me come beg
Lord! I love you, I love you!
With all my heart
And I can't stop, now
Please!
Please!
Please!
Please, don't
FADES-
Don't make me stop loving
All my heart and soul
Crying
I'm in love
Ooo, given you too much.

Otis Ray Redding Jr. (1941-1967) è stato un cantante statunitense di soul, considerato uno dei più influenti artisti del genere. Nato a Dawson, Georgia, Redding iniziò la sua carriera musicale suonando in chiese e locali notturni del sud degli Stati Uniti. Nel 1962 firmò con la Stax Records, dove ottenne il successo con brani come "Respect" (cover di Aretha Franklin) e "Fa-Fa-Fa-Fa-Fine". Il suo stile vocale potente e emotivo, caratterizzato da un'ampia gamma e una straordinaria capacità di interpretazione, lo rese uno dei cantanti soul più amati. Tra i suoi brani più celebri figurano "I've Been Loving You Too Long", "Try a Little Tenderness" e il postumo successo mondiale "(Sittin' on) the Dock of the Bay". La sua tragica morte in un incidente aereo nel 1967, all'età di soli 26 anni, segnò la fine di una carriera promettente e lasciò un vuoto nel panorama musicale. Redding è ricordato come un artista geniale e innovativo che ha contribuito a definire lo stile del soul moderno.
