I WANTED YOUR LOVE
|
Luther Vandross and Marcus Miller
|
(album:BUSY BODY - 1983)
|
|
|
Yeah, your love...
|
|
All of the band was on time for rehearsal
|
And played everything just right
|
Then came the news telling me not to worry
|
The show is selling out tonight
|
Well, the lights went on and suddenly the crowd began to scream
|
And as you could well imagine, it was like living a dream
|
Oh, but when the lights went down and the standing "O" was done
|
I was just another lonely guy who didn't have no one
|
|
Chorus:
|
(I wanted your love, your love baby, your love baby, your love)
|
(Your love, your love, love, love love, love)
|
Give me your love, give me your love, give me your love
|
(I wanted your love, your love baby, your love baby, your love)
|
(Your love, your love, love, love love, love)
|
Well Well, your love
|
|
So busy daydreaming 'bout you, baby
|
I didn't even hear the phone
|
Then, when my friends rang the doorbell it scared me
|
They said, we're so glad you're home
|
You just won a million dollars and a trip around the world
|
Better get yourself together and forget about that girl
|
They thought I was acting crazy not to get excited too
|
But all the money in the world could never take the place of you
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
All over the city the lights were so pretty
|
The holiday was filled with cheer
|
The stars really glistened and lovers were kissin'
|
It was the special part of the year
|
So what a perfect time it was to find someone to say I do
|
Thought that I could still be happy even though she wasn't you
|
We had told the world that we were gonna ring the wedding bell
|
But when I really thought about it I was lying to myself
|
|
Repeat Chorus and Fade
|
