Vandross, Luther - I Wonder Lyrics






I stood in line at the corner store
And I heard these guys talk about this girl
Hey, who gives them love anytime they want... huh
Then they said your name and how you carry on
Your chain of fools is so long
I thought our love was still on
And so, oh what a fool I've been
I thought I was your man and oh

[Chorus:]
I wonder who's there loving you
No one does you the way I do
I wonder who... who's there loving you
And I really wonder who
(It's been so long)
Since you've called me, yeah
(I thought our love was strong)
Just the way a love should be
(And now that you're gone)
I sit here and I wonder

[Bridge 1:]
I've seen so many guys
Take one look into your eyes
And think they're in paradise

There was less than love in the things that woman said
Now, I wonder who put ideas in her head
I'm still in shock 'cause when I went back there again
She'd changed her lock and said, sorry you can't come in
What a fool I've been... lookout
I thought I was your man and oh ooh

I wonder who's there loving you
No one does you the way I do
I wonder who... who's there loving you
And I really wonder who
(It's been so long)
Since you've called me, yeah
(I thought our love was strong)
Just the way a love should be
(And now that you've gone)
I sit here and wonder

[Bridge 2:]
I've seen so many guys
Take that look into your eyes
And think they're in paradise

[Chorus]

[Fade]

I don't wanna be in love if you don't love me
And I love you so, I betcha that you don't know
And I wonder who...
I wonder, I wonder

And I wonder who thatcha got loving you
And I wonder why you're with some other guy
And I wonder who...
I wonder, I wonder

Don't wanna be a fool for no one, you see
And I want you so, I bet you don't even know
And I wonder who...
I wonder, I wonder

    i remember hearing this on the radio for the first time during a cross-country move [with my mom and dad] from Los Angeles to Philadelphia in the summer of 1988. I was 5 yrs old. I never heard this song again. I never knew the artist or name. but, it stayed in my head for more than twenty years. one day, a cousin of mine gave me his old cassette tapes from his job on college radio in the 80's with several well known albums from that time recorded on them. the "Any Love" album was one of them. I never heard the entire album. when I listened to it. . .this song came on first. my mind was blown. all I could do was smile, shake my head back and forth and chuckle. at last, my search ended. it was Luther all along. :)

  8. C.... D....

    One of my farvor

  9. D.... H....

    I miss him i luv me some Luther

  17. G.... B....

    Great album

  18. S.... J....

    Sounds like 1984, not 1988.

    S.... J....

    I think it was actually recorded in mid 86 around the same time he released Gimme the reason album. One particular track on that album has the same key Melody as this song. It's titled "see me"

  19. Z.... M....

    "your chain of fools is so long".......ouch i felt that

  20. S.... G....

    OKAY LUTHER, I WOULD SAY TO THIS QUESTION... THERE IS NO OTHER... TO HAVE FOUND SOMEONE YOU TRULY LOVE THERES NO ROOM FOR ANOTHER. THERES NO NEED TO WORRY ABOUT ANYONE SWEET TALKING NIGHT CRAWLING SNEAKING OUT THE BACKDOOR OR WINDOW...YOU FIND IT NOT ONLY BUILDS YOUR SELF RESPECT BUT HOW OTHERS RESPECT YOU BECAUSE THEY KNOW YOU WON'T ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE TREATED AS SOMEONE WHO IS EASY AND WILL GIVE IT UP TO ANYONE,BUT HOME WILL BE THE WAY IT WAS LEFT FOR DAYS WEEKS MONTHS TILL RETURN...THIS IS BEAUTIFUL

    Man This is another Serious Mid Tempo Jam by Ole Luther.Something about that late 80's Sensuous Sophisticated Groove.Gives it that Cinematic Soundtrack Feel to it.I always felt if I can't be in love with The Woman that really truly moves My Soul than I don't want it.

  24. T.... M....

    K.... H....

    I'm 35 and had heard it whenever I put the CD on but I'd always skipped it and went to Love Won't Make Me Wait. Till I just listened and man, Luther was a Genius, him & his crew Marcus Miller and Nat Adderley Jr. Tomorrow the 20th September 2018 is 30 years since it was released.

  59. J.... M....

    Love and miss you lutherx

  60. M.... R....

    Who are all the background singers on this track? It almost sounds like I heard Michael McDonald's voice and/or James Ingram on here, and I love it!

    M.... R....

    Yep, I recall that James Ingram was one of a whole choir of male singers on this one. I don't think Michael McDonald was one of them, though...

    M.... R....

    Got to take one of his beautiful females Lyrica Thomas out in London during one of his last UK tours. She was sooo fine. RIP LEGEND

    M.... R....

    Mike Diaz that's james Ingram sing background

    M.... R....

    I saw him live 3 unforgettable times in the 80's, 90's and 2003. The full background vocal line up is: Luther, James Ingram, Michael Lovesmith (he had a 1985 dance hit with "Aint Nothing Like It"), Mark Stevens, David Lasley, Kevin Owens, Daryl Tookes and finally last but no means least Lisa Fisher. Always & Forever Luther RIP.

  61. E.... S....

    This is one of my many favorite albums by Luther, I still listen to him just about everyday. LOL

  62. J.... B....

    i wish i remembered all the women i was with when this album came out... they all fell in love with his singing...can't repay him enough

  63. b.... ....

    this is what i call music,

  64. 1.... ....

    Woooooooo what a fooool I've been.....

  65. �.... �....

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  66. p.... ....

    This song, did not get the airplay that it deserved, Luther and Marcus Miller were an almost perfect combination!

  67. d.... ....

    omg this is my childhood song lol

  68. J.... E....

    I've got this on vinyl, CD and I had the cassette, cool album.

  69. C.... J....

  70. q.... ....

    This is the best Luther album ever !!! This song get this album started off RIGHT !!!!

  71. D.... K....

    Love you Luther

  72. m.... ....

    @qmitch2 I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!! I RECALL CATCHING THE BUS ACROSS TOWN TO PURCHASE THIS CASSETE TAPE THE DAY IT ARRIVED IN STORES!! Although, "Any Love" was the song the radio stations were playing, I listened to "I Wonder" until I turned colors!! lol!! This is a jam!!!

  73. A.... J....

    Ths song sounds like something that the B Boys used to get down to back in the day. I bet they to' the floor up to this song:)

  74. q.... ....

    One of my favorite Luther jams, along with "Its Over Now", "The Sweetest One", & "Make Me a Believer".

  75. A.... F....

    i have this album !!!!!!!!

  76. w.... ....

    I used to kill this back in 1988 on cassette tape! The other song from the "Any Love" album Ioved was " For You To Love"! Glad to see this posted!!

  77. C.... J....

    This & "See Me" from the "Give Me The Reason" album may be one of the most underrated Luther Jams of all-time!!

  78. M.... ....

    That's Michael Lovesmith singing background. They were good friends. Luther's favorite group were the Smith Connection...Mike and his brothers.

  79. M.... F....

    I've got it saved on my PC. If you guys who have it on tape want it sending across, let me know! Cheers,

  80. D.... C....
