He asked if I knew Etta James and the song that she sang “At Last” . I didn’t and he introduced it to me by singing this song to me this night three years ago saying this song is for me.

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
For you are mine at last

Tonight, three years later as we’re listening to the old song again, he said:
“Thank you for putting up with me all these years.”
“It’s not like you’ve not been putting up with me.”
“Hmm”
“Do you love me?”
“Why do you think I’ve been putting up with you all these years?”

a thrill that i have never known
=) yup! at last! ♥
