Luther Vandross ~ If I Was The One


I see the way he treats you I feel the tears you cry And it makes me sad and it makes me mad There's nothin' I can do, baby Cuz your lover is my best friend And I guess that's where the story ends So I've gotta try to keep it inside You'll never be, never be mine [1] - But if I was the one who was loving you, baby The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy And if I was by your side You'd never know one lonely night If it was my arms you were running to I'd give you love in these arms of mine If I was the one in your life If I could have just one wish I'd wish that you were mine I would hold you near, kiss away those tears I'd be so good to you, baby You're the one I want next to me But I guess that's just not meant to be He's there in your life, he's sharing your nights I'll never be, never be, never be right [Repeat 1] I want to reach out and feel you beside me, beside me Right here, right now, right beside me baby, baby And take you in my arms right now And scream I love you right out loud And then someday I'll pray I'll find I'll find the strength to turn to you and say [Repeat 1] If I was the one, if I was the one, the one If I was the one in your life more free lyrics

I see the way he treats you
I feel the tears you cry
And it makes me sad and it makes me mad
There's nothin' I can do, baby
Cuz your lover is my best friend
And I guess that's where the story ends
So I've gotta try to keep it inside
You'll never be, never be mine

[1] - But if I was the one who was loving you, baby
The only tears you'd cry would be tears of joy
And if I was by your side
You'd never know one lonely night

If it was my arms you were running to
I'd give you love in these arms of mine
If I was the one in your life

If I could have just one wish
I'd wish that you were mine
I would hold you near, kiss away those tears
I'd be so good to you, baby
You're the one I want next to me
But I guess that's just not meant to be
He's there in your life, he's sharing your nights
I'll never be, never be, never be right

[Repeat 1]

I want to reach out and feel you beside me, beside me
Right here, right now, right beside me baby, baby
And take you in my arms right now
And scream I love you right out loud
And then someday I'll pray I'll find
I'll find the strength to turn to you and say

[Repeat 1]

If I was the one, if I was the one, the one
If I was the one in your life

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
