I'm Gonna Start Today Lyrics


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
And I'll get that lovin' feeling
I mean to say, I'm gonna start today
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

(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, yeah, yeah)
Still dream of you returning
My pilot light is burning
I mention you every time that I pray
And 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
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
Ooh, 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
(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)
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
(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)
(I'm gonna start today)
Ooh, yeah, 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)
(I'm gonna start today)
Working on loving you, yes I am
(I'm gonna start today)
You are one of a kind, you've made up my mind
(I'm gonna start today)
Baby, dry your tears away
(I'm gonna start today)
I'm gonna start today
I'm gonna start today
I'm gonna start today

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.
