Luther Vandross
Nobody to Love
[Spoken Intro]
Sometimes people say one thing and mean another
That's what you do when it comes to love
And though you say you want it
It seems like you do anything to keep it away
[Verse 1]
Hey baby, what's your game?
I ask you the questions and the answer's still the same
How can you go on day to day
Without someone to care
If I wanted to take that chance
If I wanted to be your man
[Chorus]
You tell me that you feel lonely
But you won't love nobody
You tell me that you got a big heart
But you won't love no one
You lie and you moan and you bitch and you groan
But you won't let nobody in to love
What am I gonna do?
[Verse 2]
Hey there baby, you're not shy
We talk for hours and you seem just fine, girl, but...
Every time I bring up love
You run for cover
Suppose I told you something that's true
Suppose I told you that I want you
[Chorus]
You tell me all the guys want you
But you won't love nobody
You keep your heart in seclusion
And you won't love no one
You game and you flirt and you talk a lot of dirt
But you don't want nobody to love
What are you gonna do?
[Bridge]
Heart feels empty, there's no one home
Nights are longer when you're alone
[Outro]
You tell me that you feel lonely
But you won't love nobody
You tell me that you got a big heart
But you won't love no one
You lie and you moan and you bitch and you groan
But you won't let nobody in to love
Love, love, love, hey lady, baby
You say that all the guys want you
But you won't love nobody
You keep your heart in seclusion
And you won't love no one
You game and you flirt and you talk a lot of dirt
But you don't want nobody to love
To love, love, love, baby
I want your love, girl
But you won't love nobody
I got your goodness
But you won't love no one
I don't want them saying
She's the one with nobody to love
What are you gonna do?
I hear them saying
She's the one with nobody
I can hear them saying
She's the one with no one
People are saying
She's the one with nobody to love
To love, love, love, baby
