“Endless Love” – Luther Vandross and Mariah Carey
When I was 13 years old, I couldn’t afford to buy CDs. If there was a song I liked, I’d wait for it come on the radio so I could record it on cassette tape. Then, I’d play the song over and over again until the tape got so scratched the music was warped. This is one of the songs I had on constant repeat in 1994. It’s by my musical Mama Mariah Carey and the unforgettable Luther Vandross. I love all her duets, but this is probably my favorite.
“Endless Love”
Luther Vandross and Mariah Carey
My love
There’s only you in my life
The only thing that’s right
My first love
You’re every breath that I take
You’re every step I make
And I
I want to share
All my love with you
No one else will do
And your eyes
Your eyes, your eyes
They tell me how much you care
Ooh yes, you will always be
My endless love
Two hearts
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun
And forever
I’ll hold you close in my arms
I can’t resist your charms
And love
I’ll be a fool for you
I’m sure
You know I don’t mind
Oh, you know I don’t mind
‘Cause baby you,
You mean the world to me
Oh, I know
I’ve found in you
My endless love
Oooh, and love
I’ll be that fool for you
I’m sure
That you know I don’t mind
And, yes
You’ll be the only one
‘Cause no one no one can deny
This love I have inside
And I’ll give it all to you
My love, my love, my love
My endless love
