Additional quotes by Etta James

I would rather, I would rather go blind boy
Than to see you walk away from me child, and all.
So you see, I love you so much
That I don't want to watch you leave me baby.
Most of all, I just don't, I just don't want to be free no.

I was just sitting here thinkin’ of your kiss and your warm embrace, when the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now revealed the tears that was on my face.

It feels so good to be happy.
