"At Last" is a 1941 song written by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren for the musical film Orchestra Wives, starring George Montgomery and Ann Rutherford. It was performed in the film and on record by Glenn Miller and his orchestra, with vocals by Ray Eberle and Pat Friday. Unreleased recordings of the song, however, had been made in 1941 by Glenn Miller for possible inclusion in the film Sun Valley Serenade. An orchestral version of the song without lyrics first appeared in that movie in 1941. A new version was recorded by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra in Chicago on May 20, 1942, and released by RCA Victor Records as a 78 single, catalogue number 27934-B, backed with the A side "(I've Got a Gal In) Kalamazoo". The song reached number 9 on the Billboard pop charts in 1942, staying on the charts for 9 weeks, and later became a standard. In 1960, it was covered by blues singer Etta James in an arrangement that improvised on Warren's melody. James' version was the title track in the same-named album At Last! and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999.
Etta James (born Jamesetta Hawkins; January 25, 1938 – January 20, 2012) was an American singer. Her style spanned a variety of music genres including blues, rhythm and blues, rock and roll, soul, gospel and jazz. Starting her career in the mid-1950s, she gained fame with hits such as "Dance With Me, Henry", "At Last", "Tell Mama", and "I'd Rather Go Blind" for which she wrote the lyrics. She faced a number of personal problems, including drug addiction, before making a musical resurgence in the late 1980s with the album The Seven Year Itch.
James is regarded as having bridged the gap between rhythm and blues and rock and roll, and is the winner of six Grammys and 17 Blues Music Awards. She was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1993, the Blues Hall of Fame in 2001, and the Grammy Hall of Fame in both 1999 and 2008.Rolling Stone ranked James number 22 on their list of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time and number 62 on the list of the 100 Greatest Artists.
Jamesetta Hawkins was born on January 25, 1938, in Los Angeles, California, to Dorothy Hawkins, who was only 14 at the time. Her father has never been identified. James speculated that her father was the pool player, Rudolf "Minnesota Fats" Wanderone, and met him briefly in 1987. Due to her mother being often absent from their Watts apartment, conducting relationships with various men, James lived with a series of foster parents, most notably "Sarge" and "Mama" Lu. James referred to her mother as "the Mystery Lady".
Christina María Aguilera (born December 18, 1980) is an American recording artist and actress. Aguilera first appeared on national television in 1990 as a contestant on the Star Search program, and went on to star in Disney Channel's television series The Mickey Mouse Club from 1993 to 1994. Aguilera signed to RCA Records after recording "Reflection", the theme song for the animated film Mulan (1998).
In 1999, Aguilera came to prominence following her debut album Christina Aguilera, which was a commercial success spawning three number one singles on the Billboard Hot 100—"Genie in a Bottle", "What a Girl Wants", and "Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)." Her sophomore and her debut Latin-pop album, Mi Reflejo (2000), a Christmas third studio album, My Kind of Christmas (2000), and several collaborations followed which garnered Aguilera worldwide success, though she was displeased with her lack of input in her music and image. After parting from her management, Aguilera took creative control over her fourth studio album, Stripped (2002). The album's second single, "Beautiful", was a commercial success and helped the album's commercial performance amidst controversy over Aguilera's image. Aguilera followed up Stripped with the soul, jazz and blues inspired, Back to Basics (2006), released to positive critical acclaim. The album produced three singles "Ain't No Other Man", "Hurt" and "Candyman". Four years later Aguilera released her sixth studio album, Bionic (2010), which incorporated aspects of R&B, electropop, and synthpop and was met with mixed reviews and low sales. Aguilera's seventh studio album is set to be released in 2012.

Been walking on air for the last 92 hours
But I won’t make it harder on you girls
Been groping my way along the darkest of dungeons
Until I found out there were switches all around
At last! I found what I was dreaming of
Someone who truly understands me
A man I can trust, trust with my dust
At last It’s more than I could ever expect
I can’t believe it’s real
Now my life has a goal: a good happy home
Made up my mind now it’s time settle down
But don’t hold this against me I gotta run now
Oh girls I found what you’re still craving for
If you accept a piece of my advice
It’s nothing but luck, and I happened to be struck
Oh girls, oh please don’t be so childish
Don’t want my joy to make you sick
Thought I could share the fun
But I guess I was wrong
Gave up my heart and my soul and my pride
And my job and my creeds and the ones that I love
Gave up my all to a man I just met
But there’s no time to waste cos it’s almost too late

At last,
my love has come along,
my lonely days are over,
and life is like a song,
I've had my heart broken in two,
over and over again,
first it was this girl Renee,
she went and slept with my best friend,
just wanted to be left alone,
but then came along Emily,
and she did the same thing to me,
8 months later was Jessica
I gave her my heart, she through it on the floor
to think that I trusted her,
I lent her my card, and she bought out the store
so I had to let her go,
and open my heart up to destiny,
and she opened her arms to me.
At last,
my love has come along,
my lonely days are over,
and life is like a song.
When I lay next to you,
its like a feeling I never felt,
I know that heaven is missing you,
its what I'm saying to myself,
girl I've been through all of this pain,
but no I am finally free,
cause you gave your love to me,
At last,
my love has come along,
my lonely days are over,
and love is like a song.
baby,
I been through the stars
and a share of broken hearts
And I don't know what you did,
but you'll always be my baby,
cause baby, I gave up on love
girl I had enough,
you turned my life, into a song,
At last,
my love has come along,
my lonely days are over,
and life is like a song,
At last,
my love has come along,
my lonely days are over,
(Refrain)
At last, we bring you the fastest growing phenomenon,
bombin' on stereos
At last, we get a fifth and takin' our time, now
waitin' for the right scenario, here we go
At long last, we ‘bout to make a permanent mark and rip
the toughest mental fabric apart because
At last, we done playin' with these puzzle pieces and
parts to make em [plea darts] lets start
(Verse)
To all my money making emcees and formal road scolars
who mighta, lost they life for a handful of dollars
you gotta, mouthful of dead weight you can't swallow
and a block long path of red tape you can't follow.
My fan peak, Ted AD and Ted Shala
brand of rap, jump off the chain like rottweillers
Off the meter often consider to be awesome
With the style that rock from Bangkok to Boston.
All up in ya mouth, between your teeth flossin'
Tryin' to sell me sort on the shelf and might cost ‘em
His limbs or his life savings his forehead for
engraving
The name Psyche in metal shavings
When you come off, maan, it's less than amazing
That's why your style will always get beat like frat
hazings.
I'm old style razor with a leather strap shaving
Step up and decipher if you like sunbathing
Yeah, it's right here, it's right here, it's right
here.
Yo, how you gonna see it standing way over there
Getting beat up side the cranial with these solar
flares.
Yeah, it's right here, it's right here, it's right here
I drop a devastating verse that you can't compare
We ‘bout to make the whole public aware because
(are you ready) (Refrain)
(Verse)
I got a shot at the monotony and tryin' to make
Manopoly money stretch so I can by back my stolen
property
If I do it properly and get some heads to follow me We
rule our own colonies the government could swallow me
I'm polygonal, In either stereo or mono
So many sides I couldn't tell you vertical from
horizontal
Straight up and down like some corduroy pants
I drop a style that at first glance it seems too
advance
Straight abstract, it use to be the format
Before I knew a thing about verbal combat
And now I carry heavy ammunition on my back
And always stay in the position to blow cats to scraps
I never got better just learned to adapt
Stay alert and proact and never had to react
And stay adept to bringing new concepts into my frame
of thinking
Always switching up the pictures like trying on new
skins to see which one'll fit cha
But I'm comfortable in this caramel
Hope you get the point while you sleepin' on that bed
of nails
‘cause we ‘bout to drop some weight on ‘em and commence
to tip the scales ‘cause
(Refrain)
(let the word go forth)
(we have much to do)
(I ask for your help)
(without that we have nothing)
(the world is very different now)
(dangerously misguided)
you run, you cry, you don’t belong
the earth its all about to explode
this is the end of human race
you grow you live you don’t belong
your heart its full of emptiness
sinner, looser, corrupted, betrayed
flesh, blood, weak, broke
cynic, sadist, sodomized, realize.
At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over

And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last
I was never spellbound by a starry sky
What is there to moon glow, when love has passed you by
Then there came a midnight and the world was new
Now here am I so spellbound, darling
Not by stars, but just by you
At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over and life is like a song

At Last... Humm! Humm!! Humm! Humm!
I can't tell you 'bout the future
I wouldn't even swear about the past
One thing I know for certain
That's when your heart stops hurting
Falling in love, caught up with me at last
Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and I'm glad I'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, I know it's right
By the way that I'm sleepin at night
People say that love ain't easy
Find a little love and let it dawn
One thing I know for certain
It'll make your heart stop hurting
Falling in love, caught up with me at last
Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and I'm glad I'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, I know it's right
I was out there, all on my own
And just a smile is all I was after
And then you filled my world up with laughter
What a wonderful life
I never saw it so beautiful
Oh-oh-wo-oh what a wonderful life
Always knew it would, never had it so good
Now my time's arrived, and I'm glad I'm alive
I feel like a love today, and it won't fade away
In my heart, I know it's right
Always knew it would, never had it so good

And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last
I can say that I've lived here in honor and danger
But I'm just an animal and cannot explain a life
Down this chain of days I wished to stay among my people
Relation now means nothing, having chosen so defined
And if death should smell my breathing
As it pass beneath my window
Let it lead me trembling, trembling
Verse 1:
Well I know you’re a victim of a love and hate relationship,
But that don’t change our situation.
Cuz we’ve been runnin’ round like children in a playground,
Playing hide and seek w/ no explanations.
Now don’t get me wrong, I’ve been lovin’ every minute girl,
Especially behind closed doors together
But the truth remains the same that you’re somebody else’s,
I don’t wanna play this game of fair-weather.
Chorus:
Baby, you and I know
To keep this on the down low,
Maybe we should slow it down, and take some time to figure it out.
And it won’t come easy,
You being without me
But I think we need to slow it down, (and take some time to figure it out).
Verse 2:
Ooh…. I’d like to think that all this time that we’ve been spending,
has been more than undercover attraction
And I know that you don’t really love him like you used to
so you come to me for love and affection
Now don’t get me wrong I’ve been lovin’ every minute girl,
Every secret moment alone.
But the truth remains the same that you’re somebody else’s,
I don’t wanna hide this love anymore!
He was a songwriter
Writing songs about a girl
She was a ghostwriter
Lying to the world
In deep anticipation
Of the day that she had written
And by her own admission
She'd be picked up, kissed and twirled
He was a fearful boy
Watchful of the earth
Worried that it might split apart
And he wouldn't even hear it first
He'd be caught in some position
Like a broken, old physician
And worst of all he feared that it would hurt
He's poured his heart out
Is nothin' gonna come of that
So when can he finally say
At last
At last
At last
At last
Oh, I thought you'd never ask
Oh, seven hundred letters
She catalogued them all
Dated them and numbered them
And then hid them down below
She would always keep 'em
Once a year would read them
Each time she'd be thinkin'
Somehow, he must know
She's poured her heart out
Is nothin' gonna come of that
So when can she finally say
At last
At last
At last
At last
Oh, I thought you'd never ask
Outside of his apartment
The night was blanketed in mist
She stood lookin' up at his light
And thinking' what it meant
It meant that he was in there breathing
What was it he was thinking
It was of her she wished, she wished
They're pourin' their hearts out
Is nothin' gonna come of that
So when can they finally say
At last
At last
At last
At last
Oh, I thought you'd never ask
At last
At last
At last
And if you thought it was over then you
Better think twice. You've been given
Your last chance, now face the fucking
Avalanche. And who the fuck are you to
Say that we're just wasting time? There's
No need to look back as we approach the
Finish line. Can't stand side by side, if you
Can't face the fucking avalanche. We're
Standing on top at last. At last, you'll
Have to face the fucking avalanche.
Standing at the top of the world. At last,
Looking down from the top of the world.
Tell me what's on ya mind and, baby, don't try to lie
'Cause your lips say this but your heart does that, oh oh
Well, maybe we're just wasting time, trying to pretend we're doing fine
But it's just a game trying to mend that patch
Something that fell apart sometime ago
Both of us know the truth, yeah, still a part of me can't let go
But I'm tired of been played, so where do we go from here
I expected more from you, baby, then what you could return
You said you're sorry and she's just a friend
But I say you lie so don't try to pretend
But you said we'd work it out but you never even tried
You said she meant nothing to ya
I say you lie, I said, I say you lie
For the things that I've heard, I guess they say we're absurd
Until you showed yourself to be someone else, oh yeah
Don't wanna leave feeling like I do
'Cause I've got things that I must say to you, baby
The trust I had for you before, just left and it ain't coming back no more
By the way that was me driving next to your car
I saw her kissing you and you kissed her right back
And there's much more than friendship when you're kissing like that
You said you're sorry and she's just a friend
But I say you lie so don't try to pretend
But you said we'd work it out but you never even tried
You said she meant nothing to ya
I say you lie, I said, I say you lie
You lied about meeting me every minute of the day
You lied when you were kissing me and more than that I wanna say
You lied to our Heavenly Father, when you made your vows
I'll get over it 'cause I'm through with you, I'm gonna make it somehow
You said you're sorry and she's just a friend
But I say you lie so don't try to pretend
But you said we'd work it out but you never even tried
You said she meant nothing to ya
I say you lie
You said you're sorry and she's just a friend
But I say you lie so don't try to pretend
But you said we'd work it out but you never even tried
You said she meant nothing to ya
I say you lie, I said, I say you lie
You said you're sorry and she's just a friend
But I say you lie so don't try to pretend
But you said we'd work it out but you never even tried
You said she meant nothing to ya
I say you lie
At Last......
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
oh ya ya

Until I found the key

I'm back in you're arms
At last I found my heaven
I waited for so long
But now I'm coming home
I'm back in you're arms
At last I found my heaven
I waited for so long
But now I'm coming home
I tried so many times
To find the right direction
Someone who teach me how
To handle my affection
But now I recognize
The hope that ever happen
Wasn't in its way quite right
There isn’t in a life

Sera was a sweet girl
A good friend of mine,
Never would hurt a soul.
Always such a nice girl,
Smiled all the time,
With a heart pure as gold.
Trans 1:
But she cant see the way that these,
Other guys always treat her so wrong.
And she cant see what she really needs,
Has been right here waiting all along.
Chorus:
So I wrote her this song,
A melody to show her all shes worth,
Too lost in a world, not knowing what she deserves.
Ill sing her this song, cuz sometimes its hard to say in words.
This is my dedication to you
This is my D-E-D-I-C-A-T-I-O-N to you ( x 2 )
Verse 2:
Standing from a distance,
(You're) so damn beautiful
Can I get you alone?
A chance for you to listen
(To) tell you how I feel
If only you had known..
Trans 2:
That all this time what Ive held inside,
Has been tearing my heart in two.
And now this time, wont let my pride
Get in the way of me being with you..
Fill it up with all your rage now
No more time to kill the pain anyhow
Take a chance and make the sirens scream
Take a glance you're going insane
One more trick before your soul dies
No more time to kill the sound anyhow
One more sign before your mind explodes
It's too damn full and you make it blow
Blow your mind to get a break now
No more time to hesitate anyhow
One more trick before your soul dies
It's too damn sick to pay the price
Stretch your power to the end now
No more time to kill the sound anyhow
One more sign before your mind explodes
It's too damn full and you make it blow
It could have been you, you know it's true
It's stabbing the heart of mine (x2)
Running, running
Running away from the past
Reaching, reaching
Reaching out at last
It could have been you, you know it's true
It's stabbing the heart of mine (x2)
Running, running
Running away from the past
Reaching, reaching
Reaching out at last
Blow your mind to get a break now
No more time to hesitate anyhow
One more trick before your soul dies
It's too damn sick to pay the price
Stretch your power to the end now
No more time to kill the sound anyhow
One more sign before your mind explodes
It's too damn full and you make it blow
And you make it blow
Girls rock this world
Girls rule this school
Girls talk the talk
Girls always walk the walk
Go back to school
Where the girls rule
Go back to school
Where all the boys always drool
Girls rock this world
Girls rule this school
Girls talk the talk
Girls always walk the walk
We go back home
Where we belong
We go back home
And we keep writing these songs
Girls rock this world
Girls rule this school
Girls talk the talk
Girls always walk the walk
We stay at home
And keep singing these songs
We stay at home
Verse 1:
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's no more when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long anytime
She goes away
Verse 2:
Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't a home
Anytime she goes away
Bridge:
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know I know, I know, I know
Hey I'll leave the young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness everyday
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
Anytime she goes away
All my presence died today
I breathe to memories
Guess I'm closing down
Torn and tired of my heart's sound
What's worth to me
When life's not around
I will sleep tonight
To sleep tomorrow
If I sleep at last
A promise has been broken
The essence of love in rust
One in a million
I'm the one turning pale
Any colours to express
Apart from bleak is hard
And where you are
My thoughts are in guilt
So forget me
Forget me not
Time to catch something
Since my ticket says the end
All my flowers withered today
The room is quiet
Guess it's growing cold
Dead calm without my heart's sound
What's worth to you
When I'm not around
I will sleep tonight
To sleep tomorrow
At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Uh uh uh
At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped in clover
The night I looked at you
I found a dream
That I could speak to
A dream that I
Call my own
I found a thrill
To press my cheek to
A thrill that I
I never known
You smiled
And then the spell was cast
And here we are
In heaven
For you are mine at last
I found the dream
That I could speak to
A dream that I
Could call my own
I found a thrill
I Love to press my cheek to
A thrill that I I I
I never known
You You You smiled
And then the spell it was cast
And here we are
We are in heaven
For you are mine
Why do you throw stones at your own heart
It makes us sad to see you this way
These ideas that you still cling on to
Don't belong to you
Throw them away
But our minds play tricks on us all
Waiting for anything to catch your fall
Sit a moment in silence
There you can recall
That the tide will rise
And the tide will fall
And the things that push on you
You can't see them all
And the moon will rise
And the night will fall
And the things that pull on you
You can't leave them all
So put your best foot forward
And let's get out of here fast
Cause your bones are healed
So rip off that cast
And let the past be the past at last
You're thinking what are you gonna be doing when the pain comes back
But it's just a shell that surrounds you understanding just got cracked
Like a fruit will split, a seed will drop now will grow another crop
Don't ever let it stop drop or roll you off the top
Now you can see the season coming and going ebb and flowing
And you know when it's snowing that the seed will soon be growing
Winter into spring and summer into fall
Got to love them all
And you will rise
And you will fall
And the things that come at you
You can't fight them all
I was never spellbound by a starry sky
What is there to moon glow, when love has passed you by
Then there came a midnight and the world was new
Now here am I so spellbound, darling
Not by stars, but just by you
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
My heart was wrapped in clover the night I looked at you
I found a dream that I can speak to
A dream that I can call my own

Im sitting here thinking bout the times we shared
Trying to decide if I even should care
I know youre gone and weve already said our goodbyes
Forgetting you aint easy
Im waiting by the phone wishing you would call
Hoping that you changed your mind after all
Im all alone you left me here wondering why
You wanted to leave me
And when I cant take it anymore
When theres no more tears to cry,
I simply close my eyes and
Dream youre lying here next to me
When I dream your smile it sets me free
When I dream were falling in love once again
But then I wake and all I have are faded memories.
Reality hits me once again
I feel it in my heart will it ever end
I think Im missing you more than I did before
Is that even possible?
I cant eat, I cant breathe, I cant sleep
Without thinking bout you..
I dont think you know what you mean to me
Girl, you are so beautiful
Just when I thought Id make it through
Just when I was getting over you
Just when I had found some piece of mind
Suddenly, you come to me
And now youre here youre lying here next to me
And now youre here your smile it sets me free
And now youre here were falling in love once again
[Chorus:]
It's funny how rappers talk about how much they flip
I really don't care, it's whatever type shit
Funny how I really don't care
Funny how I really don't care
Funny how rappers talk about how much they flip
I really don't care, it's whatever type shit
Funny how I really don't care
Funny how I really don't care
[Verse 1:]
Hey yo, figured this chick ridiculous a long time ago
The antidote to whack rappers like a Reef quote
Underfunded, well-groomed so fuck it
Do em all [? ] but I
Speed it up for all the duly rap Kool G Rap loving cats
Imagine that, I could snap your neck back
Viciousness rip your head off like liquorice
You could come one come all, it's still effortless
I had a lot to prove and now I don't, come out your throat and
Choke on your own shit, you weaker than your own clique
So step to it, I could break you down like a therapist do it
You insecure, stupid
So say what you want or write your problems in a bottle
Throw em in the ocean like a corny Danielle Steel novel
Cause ain't nobody see you, I'm above sea level
I am an island that y'all cling to
Rap, could have left that shit alone but that's too easy
I see the way you eyeing me, taking me for a cheesy type
Chicken don't confuse me with your woman
Who play with many balls like a baseball mitten
[? ] that's a lesson you could learn the hard way
Like being sent to prison wrongly convicted of child rape
I hurt you, woman to man it's not personal
[? ] the girl that birthed you, find her and reverse you, bye bye
[Chorus]
[Verse 2:]
Rap messiah rapid fire at you tired-ass liars
Mastermind crack writer that inspires that biter
Don't want to sound like me, the underground OG
I done go in the booth drunk from guzzling down OE
And paint a [? ] picture for the world to see
Only thing on earth that's nicer than my girl is me
I know that I'm cocky dude but how could I not be rude?
I can't begin to try to count all the artists I probably chewed
And [? ] I done had mommy nude
And I was butt-ass myself so we mashed like [? ]
And the rest is a given, nah fuck that I'm a tell you
Man her neck was in rhythm then we sexed in the kitchen
Trying to tell you that's what you get when you're fresh with your spittin'
So in New York or not I'm still next to a pigeon
Hip hop fans better form a rescue division (why?)
Cause anybody gets down on my journey to the ground
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
Your bitch ain't as nice as me cause I ain't a bitch
I'm that grown woman that bitches aspire to be
Their cats try to see on the low
They tell their chicks they're going to check a show
But it's me that they're checking for
Then they tell me that they don't want their wife
They want a life with a rapper chick
Grass is green and shit, that's why I'm celibate
Fought for the hell of it, I get bored I dip out
Your boyfriend text me when he get bored of you, you flip out
And act like you know but you ain't got shit on me
I roll with one army that's me, you can't harm me
Or what I live for: God, music, and family
All three out of reach bitch, please understand me
I'm untouchable so don't be Sean Connery
My pops was a gangster, mother is God's property (true story)
That makes me something sort of special like an odyssey
What you think you got you don't got on me
