My brother played these kinds of ballads. I think Marvin Gaye produced this piece. You can hear the instrumentation echoing through this. Simply beautiful. I wish there was an instrumental to this. I would sing this all the time. I was about 10 years old with a big afro.

I still have my original vinyl Renaissance album and later on I bought a CD version. I just love the artwork and how they looked I would just look at them and admire the artwork on the album so much when I was a teen.I wish this version was on it. Billy Griffin was so underrated and never got the recognition he genuinely deserved as far as I’m concerned. He is a very good singer and he was gorgeous as well!!

Something about music telling the story of unrequited love is very powerful. It's like Denise Williams "gonna take a miracle". Need me a girl that digs these kinda tunes.
