At Last
Etta James Lyrics


At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Oh yeah, yeah

At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream
That I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill
To press my cheek to
A thrill that I've never known

Oh yeah, yeah

You smiled, you smiled
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
For you are mine

At last

Lyrics
At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song

Oh, yeah, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

And I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Oh, yeah, yeah, and you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in Heaven
For you are mine at last

And life is like a song

Oh yeah yeah
At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you

I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known

Oh yeah yeah
You smile, you smile
Oh And then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last

There's a young talented sprout called Angelina Jordan, who absolutely adored Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald and Billie Holiday and she did some covers of them.

@Vanguard755 Absolutely! Those singers aren’t close to being in the same class. Etta James was just incredible.
