Luther Vandross — I Gave It Up When I Fell In Love

[Verse 1] 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'd get by without it Until I found this one girl 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 And that was all I was thinking of But I gave it up when I fell in love I used to know party people around the world Not anymore, 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 [Verse 2] Honey, 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 me change my mind 'Cause when she said goodbye You know, I really thought I'd never stop crying [Chorus] See, I used to be such a bad, bad boy And good times were my toy for joy And that was all I was thinking of But I gave it up when I fell in love I used to know party people around the world But not anymore, 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 [Bridge] And 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, hey, yeah yeah, how they wonder See, she's the one treats me good enough See, I gave it up when I fell in love I gave it up (I gave it up) Ooh wee (ooh wee) Sho' did (sho' did) Baby, yeah, she's the one treats me good enough So I gave it up when I fell in love Honey, hey I gave it up (I gave it up) Sho' nuff gave it up (sho'nuff gave it up) Yeah yeah, that was all I was thinking of But I gave it up when I fell in love I used to know party people around the world But not anymore, I gave it up when I found that girl Yeah, and she's the one treats me good enough So I gave it up when I fell in love [Chorus] See, I used to be such a bad, bad boy And good times were my toy for joy And that was all I was thinking of But I gave it up when I fell in love I used to know party people around the world Not anymore, 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
