Luther Ronzoni Vandross (April 20, 1951 - July 1, 2005) was an American R&B singer. A formidable soul artist whose career spanned four decades- 70's (as backing singer to David Bowie (Young Americans) and Chic, 80's vocalist on early Change singles (Searching) before establishing a solo career that perhaps never realised his true potential. In the 90's he was probably more famous for duets with Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey as well as an ongoing battle with his weight, that may have ultimately proved his undoing. Suffered a stroke in 2004, from which he never really recovered, and passed away in 2005. During his career, Vandross sold 25 million albums and won eight Grammy awards including Best Male R&B Vocal Performance four times.

Hearts Get Broken All The Time (but The Problem is, This Time It's Mine Lyrics

Luther Vandross

So many times I've seen
So many people's dreams
Lost and washed away
Out to the sea, yeah
I said "No, not I"
Pain would surely pass me by
Happening to them, but not to me, yeah
Hearts get broken all the time
Never used to worry about things like this
But the trouble is (This time it's mine)
Now I'm worrying (This one is mine)
See the problem is the heart is mine
Love would be all I'd need
How naive could I be
Trusting other people with my care, yeah
Never thought I'd have to be
One of love's casualties
Up until now my belief was that love was fair
Hearts get broken all the time
But I never worried 'bout things like this
But the trouble is (This time it's mine)
I keep worrying (This one is mine)
See the problem is the heart is mine
This time my heart's breaking
This time my love's failing
I'm trying hard not to be bitter now
I never dreamed that the broken heart would be mine
Hearts get broken all the time
You think it's love, but it never really is
Never could imagine a thing like that (I wouldn't worry)
But the trouble is (This time it's mine)
Got me worrying (This one is mine)
See the problem is the heart is mine
This is mine, this is mine, yeah
Hearts get broken all the time
Never cared a doggone thing about that (I didn't worry)
But the trouble is (This time it's mine)
And the problem really is (This one is mine)
See the whole thing is the heart is mine
This time it's mine
This one is mine
The heart is mine
This time it's mine
This one is mine
The heart is mine
This time it's mine
This one is mine
The heart is mine
