Luther Vandross - A House Is Not A Home Lyrics

Luther Vandross - A House Is Not A Home Video

Doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
Oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...
 
A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sittin' there
But a chair is not a house and a house is not a home
When there's no one there to hold you tight
And no one there you can kiss goodnight
 
Whoa...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...
Girl
 
A room is a still a room, even when there's nothin' there but gloom
But a room is not a house and a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart
 
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends, it ends in tears
 
Pretty little darling, have a heart, don't let one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there, sayin' that you're still in love with me, yeah...
 
I'm not meant to live alone, turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there, still in love
I said still in love
Still in love with you...yeah...
 
Are you gonna be in love with me
I want you and need to be, yeah
Still in love with me
Say you're gonna be in love with me
It's drivin' me crazy to think that my baby
Couldn't be still in love with me
 
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be
Are you gonna be, say you're gonna be
Well, well, well, well
Still in love, so in love, still in love with me
Are you gonna be
Say that you're gonna be
 
Still in love with me, yeah...
With me, oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...
Still in love with me, yeah...yeah...

Luther Vandross - I Know Lyrics

Luther Vandross - I Know Video

I know that you've been good to me And I know it's just a rumor spreading in this town And I know know know it's a thing I don't believe 'Cause you know I'd never let you down baby This is love that you see on my face And it's impossible to erase Still it scares me when I hear what I hear You see, everybody's talking and they whisper in my ear 1 But I know that you would never hurt me I know you got a real good heart Too bad they're talking for nothing Trying for nothing 'Cause nothing's gonna stop our love (Honey don't you see?) I know about their jealousy And I know about the talk that's growing in this town And I know know know that they don't want to believe That I'm not just a run-around baby They say we will break up, just you wait They gamble on the time and the date it will end Not much longer, they swear You see everybody's talking, I hear rumors everywhere Repeat 1 I don't believe what they think of you and me When they say that we're in trouble 'Cause they don't know what they're talking about It's just too bad we've got what they've never had So they just stay busy talking She don't love him, he don't love her! Repeat 1 I know that you would never hurt me I know you got a real big heart Too bad they're talking for nothing Trying for nothing 'Cause nothing's gonna stop us Ad lib until fade

Luther Vandross - When I Need You Lyrics

Luther Vandross - When I Need You Video

No one knows the side of you that I know
No one gets to see, to feel you
To hear you when they call
I'm the only one you answer
Because I know what to do
I know what to do
 
When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
Is only a heartbeat away
When I need love
I hold out my hand and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day
 
Miles and miles of empty space in between us
A telephone can't take the place of your smile
But I won't be traveling forever
It's cold out, but hold out
And do like I do
 
When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you
And all that I so want to give you
Is only a heartbeat away
 
It's not easy when the road is your driver
But honey that's the heavy load that we bear
But I won't be traveling a lifetime
It's cold out, but hold out
And do like I do
When I need you
 
But I won't be traveling a lifetime
It's cold out, oh honey, hold out
And do like I do
 
When I need you
I just close my eyes and I'm with you baby
And all that I so want to give you
Is only a heartbeat away
 
When I need love
I hold out my hand and I touch love
I never knew there was so much love
Keeping me warm night and day
Honey, when I need you
 
I'm in a cloud and I'm holding my hand out to you
Holding my hand out to you
Holding my hand out for you

Luther Vandross - Your Secret Love Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Your Secret Love Video

Oh, yes
A kiss in the dark
A certain time I can call you
A letter of love
But no name did you sign
Pretending to all
That we were just friends when I saw you
I didn't know that you wanted me to be
I didn't know that you wanted me for your
(For your) To be
 
1-Your secret love
Why can't we tell somebody
'Cause secret loves
Never last as long
Your secret love
Will never be your true love
I can't be no secret baby
It's breakin' my heart
(You're breaking my heart)
 
You should've let me know, from the first time baby
That you were not, were not free to love
How could you wait so long
Oh, what a waste of love, baby
I should known that you wanted me to be
I should known
That you wanted me for your (for your) to be
(repeat 1)
 
I won't be you secret love
'Cause it's just a waste of my love
I'm tellin' you from the start
I won't be the one who gives you love
When your other guy ain't givin' you none
 
Don't come now, wait for awhile
Let's meet at the place downtown
It's a shame it has to be like this
But I really miss you baby
(rpt 1, 1)

Luther Vandross - Isn't There Someone Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Isn't There Someone Video

Another sad day, another lonely day
For all we know some people only cry
They have no good times, no poetry rhymes
They don't know how or when or if or why
Why the goodness never stays
Or why love didn't come again today
 
Isn't there someone who knows they're in trouble
Isn't there someone who sees
I'll be the someone who cares that you're dying for love
I can be the someone that you need
 
I know you dream at night and lay your feelings down
And you wish your life could be more like your dreams
What a moonlit sound, your voice is not too loud
But somehow I hear it coming through to me
I pray you hang on to your dream
And I hope it gives you all the love you need
You need
 
Isn't there someone who knows that you're hurting
Is there someone to believe
Well, I'll be the someone who cares that you're dying for love
I can be the someone that you need
 
Don't you miss love, I know I often do
That's why I'm pulling you closer to me
But like anything you can't see
It's just a little harder to believe
 
Isn't there someone who loves you completely
Isn't there someone like me
Well, I'll be the someone who cares that you're dying for love
I can be the someone that you need
I can be the someone that you need

Luther Vandross - Love The One You're With Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Love The One You're With Video

There's a Rose
In a fisted Glove
And the eagle flies
With the dove
And if you can't be
With the one you love
It's alright
Go ahead and love the one,
Love the one,
Love the one your with
Love the one,
Love the one,
Love the one your with
If your guy can't come to you
And you don't remember
Who your talking to
Your concentration slips away
Because your baby,
She is so so far away
Chorus
And there's a rose
In a fisted glove
And the eagle flies
With the dove
And if you can't be
With the one you love
Love the one your with
Don't be angry
Don't be sad
Don't sit cryin'
For good times you had
There's a girl right next to you
And she's waiting
For something to do
Chorus
Do it
Do it
Do it
Turn your heartache into joy
She's a girl and your a boy
Get together, make it tonight,
You ain't gonna need no more advice
Chorus
Just love the one your with

Luther Vandross - Love Don't Love You Anymore (TM's Urban Mix) Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Love Don't Love You Anymore (TM's Urban Mix) Video

Ay, love don't love you
Hey, love, ah ha
 
Time rushes on
And it's not fair
When someone you used to love
Is no longer there
But I think it's time you know
See love is a society
Any fool can not belong
Cuz the minute you hurt love
Then it's over and done
 
Love don't love you anymore
No more, shoulda never done wrong
Love don't love you anymore
No, no
 
Love is a ride, up and down, yeah
You did what you did to love
And I betcha know now
Cuz there's no one else around
And now you're running back to me
To forgive you your mistake
Kinda makes me sad to say but
It's a little too late
 
Love don't love you anymore
No more, no more, no more, no more
Love don't love you anymore
And oh love, ooo, love
Love, love's not coming home
Ain't it hard to believe
Baby, baby, baby
Love, love's not coming home, hey
 
It seems to be that
You're the one
The one who did bad things to love
It's sad to see, so sad to tell
But now we'll never hear the bells
 
Love sure don't love you
Love sure don't want you
Love sure don't love you
Anymore, anymore
And it's a shame
 
Love sure don't love you
No it don't
Love sure don't want you
I know, I know
Love sure don't love you
Anymore, anymore
 
Love don't love you anymore
Love sure don't love you anymore, anymore
Love don't love you baby
Love, love you anymore
Love sure don't love you anymore, anymore
 
It's a shame that
Love don't love you baby
Love don't love you honey
Ain't it hard to believe
No, no, no, no
Love don't love you baby
Any love don't love ya honey

Luther Vandross - I'd Rather Lyrics

Luther Vandross - I'd Rather Video

I thought some time alone
Was what we really needed
You said this time would hurt more than it helps
But I couldn't see that
I thought it was the end
Of a beautiful story
And so I left the one I loved at home to be alone (alone)
And I tried and found
Out this one thing is true
That I'm nothing without you
I know better now
And I've had a change of heart
 
I'd rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
Whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah
 
And then I met someone
And thought she could replace you
We got along just fine
But wasted time because she was not you
We had a lot of fun
Though we knew we were faking
Love was not impressed with our connection built on lies, all lies
So I'm here cause I found this one thing is true
That I'm nothing without you
I know better now
And I've had a change of heart
 
I'd rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
Who holds my heart, who holds my heart
 
I can't blame you if you turn away from me, like I've done you,
I can only prove the things I say with time,
Please be mine, oh ho please be mine
 
I'd rather have bad times with (please be mine) you,
Than good times with someone else (I know)
I'd rather be beside you in a storm (anytime),
Than safe and warm by myself (surely surely baby)
I'd rather have hard times together,
Than to have it easy apart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart (my heart)
 
I'd rather have bad times with you (surely),
Than good times with someone else (surely)
I'd rather be beside you in a storm (oh yeah),
Than safe and warm by myself (all by myself)
I'd rather have hard times together,
Than to have it easy apart (you know yeah)
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
 
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
Whoooo.....who holds my heart

Luther Vandross - Too Proud To Beg Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Too Proud To Beg Video

Love came to me that day
Stayed longer than I planned
But change is good, they say
So I rearranged my world for them
For her and love and, here I go again
I spoke to my heart
Said, Open up wide
Then got the message you had changed your mind
And now here I am and I just don't understand
Baby, if you talk to me then I will listen
There can't be no us honey, if you are missin'
Yes I love you, yes I need you
Ain't no world for me without you
I want you, I'm just too proud to beg
So sad the journey made
So high the price we have to pay
All for love...
And it hurts you anyway
I can't lose my soul to hope and wishing
You don't understand me, I know that you think...
I don't love you, I don't need you
But, my intentions are to love you
See, I want you, I'm just too proud...
To beg for your love
So don't put me through it
Take a little time to think about what you're doing
And try to understand why...
Yes I love you, yes I need you
Ain't no world for me without you
I want you, I'm just too proud to beg
So sad the journey made
So high the price we have to pay
All for love...
And it hurts you anyway

Luther Vandross - There's Nothing Better Than Love Lyrics

Luther Vandross - There's Nothing Better Than Love Video

(Luther)
I
Fell asleep late last night...
And I dreamed the night and almost half the day away...
I just got up
So that I can hear her say
She still in love
And no one can take her love away
 
(Gregory)
 
Oh love...
Wakes me up everyday
And I thought no one
Would ever make me feel this way
She fills me up
Everytime I hear her say...
She's still in love
And no one can take her love away
 
I wanna be loved...........
 
There's nothing better than love
What in the world could you ever be thinking of....
No matter how far.........
Let yourself reach for that star
And go no matter how far
To the one you love........
To Love
 
(Luther)
And I
Mean all these words I say...
You don't have to guess
What's going on inside my head
 
(Gregory)
 
Try to know
All the tings that our hearts say...
Listen to love
And only let love lead the way
 
I wanna be loved...
 
There's nothing better than love
What in the world could you ever be thinking of....
No matter how far.........
Let yourself reach for that star
And go no matter how far
To the one you love........
 
(For love)
(For love)
 
(Luther)
You know for love I would go anywhere....
 
(For love)
 
(Gregory)
I would go there.......
 
(For love)
(For love)
 
(Luther)
For love...
To the ends of nowhere
 
(Gregory)
And for her love
 
(And for her love)
 
(Both)
I would go
I would go
I.................
I would love
Would love
To just spend all my time
 
(Gregory)
With a girl
Who makes me feel her love is mine.....
 
(Luther)
Some one you see
Who would only dream of me...........
She be in love
 
(Cause she wants to be )
(She wants to be loved)
 
There's nothing better than love
What in the world could you ever be thinking of....
No matter how far.........
Let yourself reach for that star
And go no matter how far
To the one you love........
To Love
 
Love....love
 
There's nothing better than love (oh oh oh........)
What in the world could you ever be thinking of.... (oh......)
No matter how far.........
Let yourself reach for that star
And go no matter how far
To the one you love........
 
There's nothing better than love
What in the world could you ever be thinking of....
No matter how far.........
Let yourself reach for that star
And go no matter how far
To the one you love........ (Fade)

Luther Vandross - Now That I Have You Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Now That I Have You Video

You found me when I was alone
You held me and you made my heart your home
I sit around and dream
And there's no one else I see
Cuz there's no one else for me
I don't feel like crying
 
1 I have no tears
Cuz I have no reason to cry
Love is on my mind
And my heart's no longer blue
Now that I have you
 
I don't let anyone tell me what to do
How to love, who to love
They don't know you like I know you
This is so natural, it's hard to believe
People all around me
And there's no one else I see
Cuz there's no one else for me
I don't feel like crying
 
Repeat 1
 
I have the world, and I have no fears
And I know where my happiness is
Now that I've got you to care
Now that you've got me forever
Everything I don't want is gone
And I know I can't live without your love
 
All the things I wanted now
Are starting to be true
And all the dreams I ever dreamed
Are coming now that I have you
Love is on my mind
And my heart's no longer blue
Now that I have you
Oh, now that I have you
Now that I have you

Luther Vandross - Never Too Much Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Never Too Much Video

I can't fool myself, I don't want nobody else to ever love me
You are my shinin' star, my guiding light, my love fantasy
There's not a minute, hour, day or night that I don't love you
You're at the top of my list 'Cause I'm always thinkin' of you
 
I still remember in the days when I was scared to touch you
How I spent my day dreamin' plannin' how to say I love you
You must have known that I had feelings deep enough to swim in
That's when you opened up your heart and you told me to come in
 
Oh, my love
A thousand kisses from you is never too much
I just don't wanna stop
 
Oh, my love
A million days in your arms is never too much
I just don't wanna stop
 
Never too much, never too much, never too much, never too much
 
Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started
I called you up, but you weren't there and I was broken hearted
Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demandin'
Opened the door up and to my surprise there you were standin'
 
Well, who needs to go to work to hustle for another dollar
I'd rather be with you 'Cause you make my heart scream and holler
Love is a gamble and I'm so glad that I'm winnin'
We've come a long way and yet this is only the beginnin'
 
Oh, my love
A thousand kisses from you is never too much
(Never too much, never too much, never too much)
I just don't wanna stop
 
Oh, my love
A million days in your arms is never too much
(Never too much, never too much, never too much)
And I just don't wanna stop
 
Oh, my love
A thousand kisses from you is never
(Never too much, never too much, never too much)
I just don't wanna stop
 
Oh, my love
A million days in your arms is never too much

Luther Vandross - Keeping My Faith In You Lyrics

Luther Vandross - Keeping My Faith In You Video

I just love how long we've known each other
And I know you care about me
But I can't tell just where your life is going
You've been quite a mystery
You've got all of these brand new friends
They keep taking your confidence
 
But I'm keeping my faith in you
Deep in my heart of hearts
You've been worried, puzzled, surrounded by your trouble
But I'm keeping my faith in you
 
We all cried when your first bow was taken
No one could be prouder of you
But I care more about your heart if it's aching
If I'm your friend, what else can I do?
But those people who hang around
They keep bringing your spirit down
 
But I'm keeping my faith in you, yeah
Deep in my heart of hearts
If anyone can do it
I know you'll get through it
So I'm keeping my faith in you
 
I've known you ever since way back when
And I know you, you don't want to change, my friend
But you're under pressure, like no one could imagine
It's not a good time that you've been having
But you're a real strong brother, and I know you'll recover
So I'm keeping my faith in you
 
Keeping my faith in you
Deep in my heart of hearts
If anyone can do it
I know you'll get through it
So I'm keeping my faith in you
 
Keeping my faith in you
Deep in my heart of hearts
Keeping my faith in you
Deep in my heart of hearts
 
You've been worried, puzzled
Surrounded by big trouble
But I'm keeping my faith in you
 
Keeping my faith in you
My faith in you
Keeping my faith in you
My faith in you
Keeping my faith in you
My faith in you
