Are you ready? Woo
The best things in life are free, yeah

[Verse 1: Janet Jackson & Luther Vandross]
Boy, when you look at me
Do you judge me by my cover?
Got to be kiddin' me, to think that I'm that kind of lover
I don't mean to disagree, sorry, you can't buy my kisses
Open your еyes and see
True love comеs for free
I'm keepin' my heart open, and hopin' you won't stab me in it
'Cause I've been in love before, and when I had to pay I didn't
I'll lose my sanity, tryin' to measure your intentions
What do you want from me?
How much will it be?

[Pre-Chorus: Janet Jackson & Luther Vandross]
No more than you're willing to give (Yeah yeah)
'Cause you won't pay nothin' for this good lovin', it's for free (Alright)
And I won't make you promises
I'll just do all I can to be your lover 'cause I understand

[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Luther Vandross, Luther]
The best things in life are free (Yeah)
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me (Don't you know it)
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
[Post-Chorus: Janet & Luther, Luther, Janet]
Hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey (Come on now)
Uh-huh-huh, hey, yeah yeah (Ooh, baby, ooh)
I know you are my baby, my one and only baby
You said it twice, I'll say it thrice my baby baby baby

[Verse 2: Janet Jackson & Luther Vandross]
I've got so much for you
And it's easy to give it when I know you feel the same way, too
That's all I expect from you
Just do all that you can to be my lover 'cause I understand
I do (Hoo) I do (Hoo, hoo)
They say

[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Luther Vandross, Luther]
The best things (Yeah) in life are free (Yeah)
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me (I've discovered)
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
[Bridge: Janet Jackson, Luther Vandross, Both]
Free, baby
No more than you're willing to give (Willing to give)
'Cause you won't pay me nothin' for this good lovin', it's for free
And I won't make you promises
You see, I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be, we're gonna be, I'm gonna do
The very best I can, to be your lover 'cause I understand

[Chorus: Janet Jackson & Luther Vandross, Luther]
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
(Everybody needs to know that)
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
(Everybody knows that)
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
The best things in life are free
Now that I've discovered what you mean to me
The best things in life are free
Now that we've got each other
The best things in life are free
