    Luther Vandross was a musical master whose style has influenced an entire generation of today's vocalists. His distinctive brand of satin smooth vocal magic moved international audiences and continues to touch people to this day. For almost 25 years, from 1981 to 2005, Luther Vandross dominated the American R&B music charts like no other artist before or since. In that span he released eight #1 R&B albums, seven #1 R&B singles and another five Top 20 R&B singles. He achieved crossover status with eight Billboard Top 10 albums, including reaching #1 with 2003's Dance With My Father; and another five Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles.

    Lyrics:
    I fell asleep late last night
    And I dreamed that the night
    And almost half the day away
    I just got up so that
    I can hear her say
    She's still in love
    And no one can take her love away
    Ooh love wakes me up everyday
    And I thought no one
    Would ever make me feel this way
    It feels me up every time
    I hear her say
    She's still in love
    And no one could take her love away
    I wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    To love
    And I mean all these words I've said
    And you don't have to guess
    What's going on inside me head
    Just try to know
    All the things that our heart says
    Listen to love and always
    Get love to lead the way
    Whenever you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    To love
    You know for love I'd go anywhere
    (For love) I would go there
    (For love, for love) For love to the end of nowhere
    And for your love
    (And for your love)
    I would, I would, I would love
    And I would love (would love)
    To just spend all my time
    With the girl who makes me
    Feel her love is mine
    Someone you see
    Who would only dream of me
    She'd be in love
    Just because she'd wanna be
    She'd wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love

    I fell asleep late last night
    And I dreamed the night and almost half the day away
    I just got up so that I could hear her say
    She's still in love and no one could take her love away
    … Ooh, love wakes me up everyday
    And I thought no one could ever make me feel this way
    It fills me up every time I hear her say
    She's still in love and no one could take her love away
    … I wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love, to love
    … When I mean all these words I've said
    You don't have to guess what's going on inside my head
    Just try to know all the things that our heart says
    Listen to love and always get love to lead the way
    … Whenever you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    … you know for love I'd go anywhere
    (For love) I would go there
    (For love, for love) for love to the end of nowhere
    It's for her love (and for her love)
    I would go, I would go, I would go
    And I would love (would love)
    … To just spend all my time
    With the girl who makes me feel her love is mine
    Someone you see, who would only dream of me
    She'd be in love, just 'cause she'd wanna be
    … She'd wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love (the one ah, ah)
    … There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of? (Ooh)
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love (the one)
    … There's nothing better than love
    What in the world could you ever be thinking of?
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star and go no matter how far
    To the one you love

I'm not into games or flirting,life is short and we need to make the best out of it. I like to cuddle up and watch romantic movies,love kissing both in private places or public places.I also don't mind spoiling her with gifts for no reason and generally just spending quality time knowing our heart desires. I hope you are someone who respects and treats men right because i will respect and treat you right as well.I used to buy the idea of being single since my last and first true relationship parted away from me five years ago but believe me it can be tiring at times as at now I'm even tired of being single at the moment.lol.
