SHE LOVES ME BACK

Luther Vandross

(album: Forever, For Always, For Love - 1982)





I had a lover

Who did not love me back

I did everthing that a guy could do

I couldn't do more than that

I felt so helpless

I thought things would never change

Then I saw my girl walking down on the avenue

One day I said, I wanna talk to you



I wasn't afraid to cry 

Emotion was in my eyes

She took me on a natural high

When I said, I love you girl of mine

And then she said, I love you back

She loves me back



I had a lover

Who did not love me back

I bought her candy canes and dolls and flowers

And I took her to Coney Island

Now, who could do more than that?

It was a problem

Until on that fateful day

I saw my girl walking down on the avenue

She said, I wanna talk to you



She wasn't afraid to cry

Emotion was in here eyes

She took me on a natural high

I said, I love you girl of mine

And then she said, I love you back

She loves me back



I don't thing our love's gonna lose

There ain't no way

I'm taking my time to convince her

That love's her to stay, hey

Love is here to stay because

She loves me back



We weren't afraid to cry

Emotion was in our eyes

She took me on a natural high

I said, I love you girl of mine

And then she said, I love you back

She loves me back
