If This World Were Mine (with Mariah Carey) Lyrics


If this world were mine, I'd place at your feet
All that I own, you've been so good to me
If this world were mine
I'd give you the flowers
The birds and the bees
And the old love inside me, that would be all I need
If this world were mine
I'd give you anythingIf this world were mine, I'd make you a king
With wealth untold, you could have anything
If this world were mine
I'd give you each day so sunny and blue
And if you wanted the moonlight, I'd give you that too
If this world were mine
I'd give you anythingOh baby, you're my inspiration
And there's no hesitation
When you want me, honey, just call meOh babe, you're my consolation
I feel so much sensation
When I'm in your arms, when you squeeze meThe way that you do

The way that you (love me boy)
The way that you do (ooh the way that you love me)Oh every sky would be blue
As long as you're lovin' me babyWhen I'm here in my arms
Life is so wonderful my loveGive me pretty lovin', baby
Give me pretty lovin', honey
Keep on lovin' me babe
Oh oh you know I need you, honey
You know I need you, baby
Keep on lovin' me
Lovin' me the way, the way you do
My love
I love the way that you, the way that you love me baby
I love the way that you, the way that you love me baby
You know the world, the world would be yours
Yes it would (yes it would)
The world would be yours, baby
Ooh it world would be yours
(If you beleive)

Luther Ronzoni Vandross (April 20, 1951 - July 1, 2005) was an american soul and rnb singer whose career spanned four decades.

In the 70s, he worked as a backing singer Chic and for David Bowie (on the Young Americans album). He later found success as a solo artist with Superstar and A House Is Not A Home.

In the 80s, Vandross was a vocalist on early Change singles (Searching), whilst continuing his solo career with such releases as "Never Too Much", "Power Of Love/Love Power", "If Only For One Night", "Here And Now".

In the 90s, he was more famous for duets with Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey (amongst others), than for his solo work.

It was an ongoing battle with his weight that may have ultimately proved his undoing. He suffered a stroke in 2003, from which he never really recovered, and died in 2005.

During his career, he sold 25 million albums and won eight Grammy awards including Best Male R&B Vocal Performance four times. He won four Grammy awards in 2004, including the Grammy Award for Song of the Year for the track "Dance With My Father," co-written with Richard Marx.
