BECAUSE IT'S REALLY LOVE

Luther Vandross

(album: GIVE ME THE REASON - 1986)



I used to be afraid

That you were never gonna love me this way

But I feel better now

No one could ever say

To me, It's such a shame you're a lonely guy

Because you love is mine

And now we know our love is ever so true

I think we know it 'cause you feel the way I do

I can't imagine me without you, my dear

And I'm so glad about the reaon that you came here



Chorus:

Because it's love

Because it's love

Because it's really love

Because it's love

Because it's all the way love

Because it's really love



Ooo, girl you gotta stay

'Cause I wanna fill you day with happiness

'Cause I'm in love you see

There's so much I wanna say

And you'll hear the words to make you fall in love

Deep in love with me

I used to say I love you every day

To make you really know 

To trust in the things I say

But look at me now and you can clearly see

The love I feel for you

You don't need words from me



Repeat Chorus



Bridge:

When you walked into the crowded room

You sent my rocket to the moon

But little did I know that you would change my life

But you kept saying take it slow

I love you for the things you know



'Cause now I'll never spend another lonely night ... at night



I wanna be your friend

After the lovin' ends

It's not over then

You see it just begins

And all anyone can say

Is, Ooo wee you've got it made

And may the best of love

Always come your way

And I don't worry how much I fall

When the feelin' starts to call

Because it's really love 

And all my worries fall into place

When I think about your face

Because it's really love
