Luther Vandross Sometimes It's Only Love lyrics

I am still your friend standing 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

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
(Sometimes it's only love)
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
(Sometimes it's only love)
It would be only love
Sometimes love is wonderful but sometimes it's only love
