At Last

Artist: Etta James

Album: The Essential Etta James

Song Length: 3:01

George's Thoughts: This is a very unusual song for Viennese Waltz, but I saw it used as a show dance and was surprised how well a slow Blues number like this could work. Definitely only appropriate for that kind of usage, with a subtle beat that can only be exploited by the highest caliber dancers. Still, quite powerful when used properly.

Song Lyrics:

At last my love has come along

My lonely days are over

And life is like a song

At last the skies above are blue

And my heart was wrapped up in clover

The night I looked at you

I found a dream that I can speak to

A dream that I could call my own

I found a thrill to press my cheek to

A thrill that I have never known

You smiled, and then the spell was cast

And here we are in heaven

And you are mine at last
