A long time ago, I had a discussion with a friend about this song. She swore it was first recorded and released by Tina Turner, but I thought it was from another artist. Her name just escaped me. Today, I  you-tubed it, and Ann Peebles sounds as awesome she did in 1974.

Gray drizzly days, with only the sound of ticking clocks and distant chain saws.

Tis late December, the sun has turned her radiant face away from the man beneath the clouds. She is gone.

I take another Tylenol, another cup of coffee, and trudge on til the day's end,
all the while longing to see her again.
