The Best Things In Life Are Free

(duet with luther vandross)



Janet:

Boy, when you look at me

Do you judge me by my cover?

Ya got to be kiddin' me,

To think that i'm that kind of lover

I don't mean to disagree

Sorry you can't buy my kisses

Open your heart and see

True love comes for free



Luther:

I'm keepin' my heart open

Hopin' you won't stab me in it

'cause i've been in love before,

And when i had to pay i didn't

I'll lose my sanity

Tryin' to measure your intentions

What do you want from me how much will it be?



Janet:

No more than you're willing to give 'cause

You won't pay nothin' for this good lovin'

It's for free



Luther:

And i won't make you promises

I'll just do all that i can to be your lover

'cause i understand



Chorus:

The best things in life are free

Now that i've discovered what you mean to me

The best things in life are free

Now that we've found each other

The best things in life are free



Luther:

I know you are my baby

My one and only baby

You said it twice

I'll say it thrice

My baby baby baby



Janet:

I got so much love for you

And it's easy to give it

When i know you feel the same way too



Luther:

That's all i expect from you

Just do all that you can to be my lover

'cause i understand (i do)



Repeat chorus



Janet:

No more than you're willing to give 'cause

You won't pay nothin' for this good lovin'

It's for free



Luther:

And i won't make you promises

You see i'm gonna be, i'm gonna be,

We're gonna be, i'm gonna be

The very best i can

To be your lover 'cause i understand



Repeat chorus
