Apologize - Luther Vandross

[00:32.070]Your love’s never been better
[00:35.730]So good it’s a sin
[00:39.680]But it’s time for a decision
[00:43.810]Is it me or him?
[00:48.570]Before you make your mind up' hear me
[00:52.310]I just want you to see things clearly
[00:55.790]This should be about love' not money
[01:00.320]Don’t let him try to take you from me
[01:03.550]I don’t wanna have to apologize
[01:07.430]I don’t wanna feel I’ve been penalized
[01:11.300]Just ‘cause I can drive in a better car
[01:14.570]Live in a bigger house just like a superstar
[01:19.320]He says that I can only give you material things'
[01:23.760]but that’s not true
[01:26.380]You see my heart is rich with love for you
[01:29.950]Don’t let him make you doubt my love for you
[01:33.260]Yeah' baby
[01:37.580]
[01:51.000]I work hard for my money
[01:54.570]No one gave it to me
[01:58.300]But some fools think the deeper the pocket
[02:02.120]The smaller the heart will be' not true
[02:07.180]I’m only tryin’ to share me with you
[02:11.130]Look at all the lovin’ we do
[02:14.570]Find the meaning in the words I’m sayin’
[02:18.430]I’m not just another player playin’
[02:22.130]I don’t wanna have to apologize （or give a damn）
[02:26.020]And I don’t appreciate being criticized （for who i am）
[02:30.070]Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things
[02:33.250]Or take you anyplace
[02:35.090]That’s just what money brings
[02:37.980]He wants you to believe
[02:39.710]that I’m tryin’ to buy your love
[02:42.010]‘Cause that’s what he would do
[02:45.080]He thinks since he’s a man with nothing
[02:49.000]That he’s got better love for you
[02:52.250]No way
[02:53.630]Tell him now' let him go
[02:55.570]Or I can no longer be yours
[02:57.460]Tell him how you feel about me
[03:01.000]I can’t keep standing on the side
[03:04.690]And let him fill your mind with lies about me
[03:10.250]Leave him with his fallacies
[03:12.090]I don’t care what bull he believes
[03:14.190]Tell him that enough is enough
[03:17.430]Just don’t return a disbeliever
[03:21.380]You’ve always been a willing receiver of my love
[03:26.000]I don’t think I have to apologize （I work for this）
[03:29.940]I don’t wanna feel like I’m penalized （for being rich）
[03:33.920]Doesn’t bother me where he thinks I stand
[03:37.080]I’m bein’ my true self
[03:39.090]Just doin’ what I can
[03:41.890]He thinks I won you with materiality
[03:44.760]But honey' you know that’s not so
[03:48.890]And even if he understood me
[03:52.610]It’s simply time for him to go---so let him go!
[03:57.570]I don’t wanna change you
[03:59.270]‘Cause I’m in love with who you are
[04:01.700]So I don’t wanna apologize for bein’ a super star
[04:05.320]Haven’t I proved that I’m here for you?
[04:08.320]What am I guilty of?
[04:10.600]What did or didn’t I do?
[04:13.170]Maybe I can’t be myself with somebody
[04:16.780]Who believes such things are true
[04:20.160]I’m losing self-respect from trying
[04:24.080]I’m losing my desire too---i can’t do it
[04:28.960]I don’t wanna have to apologize （or give a damn）
[04:32.730]I don’t wanna feel I’ve been penalized （for who i am）
[04:36.670]Just ‘cause I can buy you a lotta things
[04:39.960]Or take you anyplace
[04:41.720]That’s just what money brings
[04:44.790]He wants you to believe that I'm tryin’ to buy your love
[04:48.540]‘Cause that’s what he would do
