  • I can't fool myself, I don't want nobody else to ever love me
    You are my shining star, my guiding light, my love fantasy
    There's not a minute, hour, day or night that I don't love you
    You're at the top of my list 'cause I'm always thinking of ya
    I still remember in the days when I was scared to touch you
    How I spent my day dreamin' plannin' how to say, "I love you"
    You must have known that I had feelings deep enough to swim in
    That's when you opened up your heart and you told me to come in

    Oh, my love
    A thousand kisses from you is never too much
    I just don't wanna stop
    Oh, my love
    A million days in your arms is never too much
    I just don't wanna stop
    Never too much, never too much
    Never too much, never too much

    Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started
    I called you up but you weren't there and I was broken-hearted
    Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demandin'
    Opened the door up and to my surprise there you were standin'
    Who needs to go to work to hustle for another dollar?
    I'd rather be with you 'cause you make my heart scream and holler
    Love is a gamble and I'm so glad that I am winnin'
    We've come a long way and yet this is only the beginning

    Oh, my love
    A thousand kisses from you is never too much
    (Never too much, never too much, never too much)
    I just don't wanna stop
    Oh, my love
    A million days in your arms is never too much
    (Never too much, never too much, never too much)
    And I just don't wanna stop
    (Never too much, never too much, never too much, never too much)

    Woke up today, looked at your picture just to get me started
    I called you up but you weren't there and I was broken-hearted
    Hung up the phone, can't be too late, the boss is so demandin'
    Opened the door up and to my surprise there you were standin'
    Who needs to go to work to hustle for another dollar?
    I'd rather be with you 'cause you make my heart scream and holler
    Love is a gamble and I'm so glad that I am winnin'

    Oh, my love
    A thousand kisses from you is never too much
    (Never too much, never too much, never too much)
    I just don't wanna stop
    Oh, my love
    A million days in your arms is never too much
    (Never too much, never too much, never too much)
    And I just don't wanna stop
    Oh, my love
    A thousand kisses from you is never
    (Never too much, never too much, never too much, never too much)
    Ne-ne-never
    I just don't wanna stop
    Oh, my love
    A million days in your arms is never too much Writer/s: Luther Vandross

  • Eric from Los Angeles, Nvgo 'head Luther....put it down in music....
  • Eugene from Minneapolis, MnI am not a Luther Vandross fan and never have been. Still I say Rest In Peace. You know just because I nessecarily dislike an artist does not automaticlly cause me to dislike some of his singles/songs. This single is one of best R&B songs of the 80s. It makes me wanna ghett down!!!
