Luther Vandross Follow

He works hard to give her all he thinks she wants

But it tears her apart cause nothings for her heart

He pulls in late to wake her up with a kiss goodnight

If he could only read her mind, shed say

[CHORUS]

Buy me a rose, call me from work

Open a door for me, what would it hurt

Show me you love me by the look in your eyes

These are the little things I need the most in my life

Now the days have grown to years of feelin all alone

As she sits and wonders if all shes doin is wrong

Cause lately shed try anything just to turn his head

Would it make a difference if she said, if she said

[CHORUS]

[BRIDGE]

And the more that he lives the less that he tries

To show her the love that he holds inside

And the more that she gives the more that he sees

This is the story of youand me

So I bought you a rose on the way home from work

To open the door to a heart that I hurt

And I hope you notice this look in my eyes

Cause Im gonna make things right for the rest of your life

And Im gonna hold you tonight, tonight

Do all those little things for the rest of your life
