| I'M GONNA START TODAY | |
| Luther Vandross and Marcus Miller | |
| (album: POWER OF LOVE - 1991) | |
| I got up this morning | |
| And without a word of warning | |
| I knew for sure I had to change my way | |
| Dusted my mind to clear it | |
| My body and my spirit | |
| But it's okay, I'm gonna start today, Hey | |
| Emotions disappearing | |
| I call out but you're not here and | |
| I question why I have this debt to pay | |
| But I'll do my best believing | |
| That I'll get that lovin' feeling | |
| I mean to say, I'm gonna start today | |
| Channel I: | |
| Start today to turn this love around | |
| I know for sure I'll never let you down, baby 'cause | |
| No longer do I think it's all in your mind | |
| I get the point and I've got nothing but time | |
| To be the way I know I really should be | |
| And find a way for love to rescue me, Ooh | |
| Chorus I: | |
| (I'm gonna start today) | |
| Working on loving you better | |
| (I'm gonna start today) | |
| Working on leaving you never | |
| (I'm gonna start today) | |
| So baby dry your tears away, it's okay | |
| I'm gonna start today, Hey Yeah | |
| Still dream of you returning | |
| My pilot light is burning | |
| I mention you every time that I pray | |
| I sleep with one eye open | |
| 'Cause in my heart I'm hoping | |
| You'll believe what I say | |
| I'm gonna start today, baby | |
| And from this moment on | |
| Even though you'll be gone | |
| I'm gonna do everything that I say | |
| I wanna be your best man | |
| I'll let time do the rest | |
| And I'll sweep you away | |
| I'm gonna start today | |
| Channel II: | |
| I am here, but since your love is gone | |
| The days are lonely and the nights are long, baby 'cause | |
| I want that love I knew, no less or more | |
| I want you back the way you loved me before | |
| 'Cause yesterday is how tomorrow should be | |
| I'll start today if you will rescue me, Ooo | |
| Bridge: | |
| The night's so long, so long without you baby | |
| And I can't stand it no more (Anymore) | |
| Come here 'cause I want to prove my love for you baby | |
| Come back this is where you belong | |
| Chorus II: | |
| (I'm gonna start today) | |
| Working on it, love has the power | |
| (I'm gonna start today) | |
| I'm working on it every, every every hour | |
| (I'm gonna start today) | |
| So baby dry those tears away, it's okay | |
| I'm gonna start today | |
| Channel III: | |
| Start today to turn this love around | |
| I know for sure I'll never let you down, baby 'cause | |
| No longer do I think it's all in your mind | |
| I get the point and I've got nothing but time | |
| To be the way I know I really should be | |
| And find a way for love to rescue me | |
| Now I know how to make love real | |
| You don't know how 'til you know how to feel | |
| I've been picking up the pieces of my broken past | |
| But it's okay, your baby's gonna start today | |
