Luther Vandross - Sometimes It's Only Love Lyrics






I am still your friend
Standin' 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

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

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

I knew that one day
It would be only love
It would be only
It would be only love

I knew that in time
It would be only love
It would be only love

And 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

I knew that one day
It would be only love
It would be only
It would be only love

'Cause sometimes love is wonderful
But sometimes it's only love

    In Luther's Today Show appearance (found here on youtube) he said he doesn't sing about making love, he sings about falling in love.....which is timeless. This song will be as relevant in 50 years time as it was the day he recorded it.

    Luther Vandross is such a legend. Just listening to his music sends chills through my body. I am only 23, but I grew up listening to Luther and there will be no one ever like him. His music and spirit will live on even though physically he is not here. RIP Luther!! We love you!!
