An immensely popular song for the Ice Man. Gamble and Huff make use of the "volume" to the string section on this record. Mainstream USA were aligning themselves to the story told by the woman in this song (Brenda Lee Eager) to the man (Jerry Butler) about the understanding of their breakup. Released in November 1971, this record went on to score a #21 on the Pop Chart but was whole heartedly an overwhelmingly success on the R&B Chart at #3.
