ANYTHING TO SAY YOU’RE MINE

(Sonny Thompson (m & l) )

Lyrics as released by Etta James 1961 ‘At Last!’


Oh, oh, I'm so blue
'Cause I'm worried over you
Oh I, I sometimes wonder
Why I never hear from you.

You promised to write me
Each and every day
And I haven't heard from you
Since you went away.

Oh, oh, I sit by my window pane
Hoping for a letter
One that never came.

My heart cries for just one little line
Anything to say you're mine.

Oh, oh...oh, oh, oh…oh

Well I said a prayer every night
Hoping, hoping and praying
Someday, someday you'd write.

Oh, oh, my heart cries for one little line
Anything to say you're mine.
