Luther Vandross - Sometimes It'S Only Love lyrics

I am still your friend

Standing by to catch you

If ever life should let you down

And you should fall.

You don't need to pretend

If ever doubt should find you.

I don't need to remind you

I'm there for you before and after all.

I am who I am

And I would never fool you.

I feel the same way you do

About honesty.

But do we understand

How love is sometimes jaded?

It keeps us separated

Even though we'll never part.

Chorus:

So to be lovers

We've got to understand

Today is how today begins,

Tomorrow's how it ends.

And to be lovers

Some things we rise above.

'Cause sometimes love is wonderful

But sometimes it's only love.

Loving who I am

Is something that you've taught me.

The kind of love you've brought me

Takes me through the day.

And even though our minds

Are sometimes disagreeing

Our hearts they're still believing

We'll work it out and stay.

(Chorus)
