The story behind the song

Ray Charles, often called "Brother Ray" by his fellow musicians, was a pivotal figure in 20th-century music, pioneering soul by blending blues, jazz, R&B, and gospel. He also played a key role in integrating country, R&B, and pop, becoming one of the first Black musicians to gain artistic control from a major record company. This song embodies the raw, heartfelt plea of someone longing for a lost love to return.
