    I don't believe I've ever heard a more masterful fusion of vocal artistry and production genius. This is both Al Green and (the late) producer Willie Mitchell's masterpiece. Every note, every word, every breath, every nuance in place . . .
    . . . .if there's any such thing as true perfection in pop music, this track comes close to achieving it.

    For the good times, 9 months of lifetime I've been spending with my little boy who comes through his second heart surgery. He is my hero. And this is definitely our song...

    Don't look so sad I know it's over
    But life goes on and this world keeps on turning
    Let's just be glad we have this time to spend together
    There is no need to watch the bridges that were burning
    [Chorus:]
    Lay your head on my pillow
    Hold your warm and tender body close to mine
    Hear the whisper of the raindrops
    Blow softly against my window pain late at night
    Make believe you love me one more time
    For the good times
    For the good times
    I'll get along I'm sure you'll find another
    But baby please remember I'll be here
    I'm gone stay right here if you should ever find that you need me
    Don't say a word about tomorrow forever and ever and ever
    There will be time enough for severence when you need me

    This was my grandmothers favorites song, I now understand why. She has now left us, But she will still always want her family to stay positive. Every time I here this song tears just start to fall. This song is the most meaningful song to me, Because of her. I will always remember the day my father told me about this song, he was in tears.
    Throughout about three months I played this song every night. All of those night I cried tears of joy thinking of all the memories we shared. "Don't look so sad, I now it's over. But life goes on, and this world keeps on turning." This part of the song always reminds me how she will always be in heaven, looking over me. Coming from a twelve year old

    Don't look so sad
    อย่าเศร้าไป
    I know it's over
    ฉันรู่ว่ามันจบแล้ว
    But life goes on
    แต่ชีวิตยังดำเนินต่อ
    And this old world
    และโลกใบนี้
    Will keep on turning
    ก็ยังหมุนอยู่
    Let's just be glad
    มายินดี
    We had some time to spend together
    ที่เราเคยใช้เวลาร่วมกัน
    There's no need to watch the bridges
    ไม่มีประโยชน์ที่จะคำนึงถึงมิตรภาพ
    That we're burning
    ที่เราต่างทำลายลงไป
    Lay your head,
    เอนกายลง
    Upon my pillow
    มาที่หมอนนี้
    Hold your warm and tender body
    กระเถิบตัว
    Close to mine
    มาหาฉัน
    Hear the whisper of the raindrops
    มาฟังเสียงหยาดฝน
    Blowing soft, against the window
    ที่กระทบหน้าต่าง
    And make believe you love me,
    ให้ฉันเชื่อว่าเธอรักฉัน
    One more time,
    อีกแค่เพียงครั้ง
    For the good times
    เพื่อเวลาแห่งความสุข
    I'll get along
    ฉันอยู่ได้
    You'll find another
    เมื่อเธอเจอคนอื่น
    And I'll be here
    ฉันจะอยู่นี่
    If you should find,
    ที่เธอมาหาได้
    You ever need me
    หากต้องการฉัน
    Don't say a word
    ไม่ต้องพูดอะไร
    About tomorrow, or forever
    เกี่ยวกับพรุ่งนี้หรือต่อไป
    There'll be time enough for sadness
    มีเวลาสำหรับความเศร้าพออยู่แล้ว
    When you leave me
    เมื่อตอนเธอจาก
    Lay your head
    Upon my pillow
    Hold your warm and tender body
    Close to mine
    Hear the whisper of the raindrops
    Blowing soft against the window
    And make believe you love me
    One more time
    For the good times
