His distinctive brand of satin smooth vocal magic moved international audiences and continues to touch people to this day. For almost 25 years, from 1981 to 2005, Luther Vandross dominated the American R&B music charts like no other artist before or since. In that span he released eight #1 R&B albums, seven #1 R&B singles and another five Top 20 R&B singles. He achieved crossover status with eight Billboard Top 10 albums, including reaching #1 with 2003's Dance With My Father; and another five Top 10 Billboard Hot 100 singles.

    Lyrics:
    I fell asleep late last night
    And I dreamed that the night
    And almost half the day away
    I just got up so that
    I can hear her say
    She's still in love
    And no one can take her love away
    Ooh love wakes me up everyday
    And I thought no one
    Would ever make me feel this way
    It feels me up every time
    I hear her say
    She's still in love
    And no one could take her love away
    I wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    To love
    And I mean all these words I've said
    And you don't have to guess
    What's going on inside me head
    Just try to know
    All the things that our heart says
    Listen to love and always
    Get love to lead the way
    Whenever you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    To love
    You know for love I'd go anywhere
    (For love) I would go there
    (For love, for love) For love to the end of nowhere
    And for your love
    (And for your love)
    I would, I would, I would love
    And I would love (would love)
    To just spend all my time
    With the girl who makes me
    Feel her love is mine
    Someone you see
    Who would only dream of me
    She'd be in love
    Just because she'd wanna be
    She'd wanna be loved
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
    There's nothing better than love
    What in the world
    Could you ever be thinking of
    It's better by far
    So let yourself reach for that star
    And go no matter how far
    To the one you love
