Luther Vandross - I Gave It Up (When I Fell In Love) lyrics

I GAVE IT UP (WHEN I FELL IN LOVE)

Luther Vandross and Marcus Miller

(album: GIVE ME THE REASON - 1986)

My friends told me all about it

They said I had to see for myself

But I never really cared much about love

I thought I could live without it

Until I met this one girl

And she was so fine

I knew she was the one who could change my mind

Chorus:

See, I used to be such a bad bad boy

And good times were my toy for joy

That was all I was thinking of

But I gave it up when I fell in love

I used to know the party people around the world

I gave it up when I found that girl

And she's the one treats me good enough

So I gave it up when I fell in love

I thought I was justified

To only see the world through my eyes

And that it was a waste of time talkin' 'bout love

But it only took a little time to make change my mind

'Cause when she said goodbye

See, I really thought I'd never stop crying

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

Now, every night I dream about you and our new love

All of my friends say I'm such a different guy

And they wonder

Oh, how they wonder

Ad lib

I gave it up

Sho' nuff gave it up

That was all I was thinking of

But I gave it up when I fell in love
