I Gave It Up (when I Fell In Love) Lyrics - The Essential Luther Vandross - Luther Vandross

I GAVE IT UP (WHEN I FELL IN LOVE) 

Luther Vandross and Marcus Miller 

My friends told me all about it 

They said I had to see for myself 

But I never really cared much about love 

I thought I could live without it 

Until I met this one girl 

And she was so fine 

I knew she was the one who could change my mind

Chorus: 

See, I used to be such a bad bad boy 

And good times were my toy for joy 

That was all I was thinking of 

But I gave it up when I fell in love 

I used to know the party people around the world 

I gave it up when I found that girl 

And she's the one treats me good enough 

So I gave it up when I fell in love 

I thought I was justified 

To only see the world through my eyes 

And that it was a waste of time talkin' 'bout love 

But it only took a little time to make change my mind 

'Cause when she said goodbye 

See, I really thought I'd never stop crying

Now, every night I dream about you and our new love 

All of my friends say I'm such a different guy 

And they wonder 

Oh, how they wonder 

Ad lib 

I gave it up 

Sho' nuff gave it up 

That was all I was thinking of 

But I gave it up when I fell in love
