Lyrics Luther Vandross

Luther Vandross

Too Proud to Beg

Love came to me that day

Stayed longer than I planned

But change is good, they say

So I rearranged my world for them

For her and love and, here I go again

I spoke to my heart

Said, "Open up wide"

Then got the message you had changed your mind

And now here I am and I just don't understand

Baby, if you talk to me then I will listen

There can't be no "us" honey, if "you" are missin'

Yes I love you, yes I need you

ain't no world for me without you

I want you, I'm just too proud to beg

So sad the journey made

So high the price we have to pay

All for love...

And it hurts you anyway

I can't lose my soul to hope and wishing

You don't understand me, I know that you think...

I don't love you, I don't need you

But, my intentions are to love you

See, I want you, I'm just too proud...

To beg for your love

So don't put me through it

Take a little time to think about what you're doing

And try to understand why...

Yes I love you, yes I need you

ain't no world for me without you

I want you, I'm just too proud to beg

So sad the journey made

So high the price we have to pay

All for love...

And it hurts you anyway
