Stevie Wonder Quotes

I wish those days could come back once more,
Why did those days ever have to go?

Looking back on when I was a little nappy-headed boy,
Then my only worry was for Christmas, what would be my toy?
Even though we sometimes would not get a thing,
We were happy with the joy the day would bring.

Well there's Basie, Miller, Satchmo
And the king of all, Sir Duke,
And with a voice like Ella's ringing out,
There's no way the band can lose.

Music is a world within itself
With a language we all understand,
With an equal opportunity
For all to sing, dance and clap their hands.

Would you like to go with me
Down my dead end street?
Would you like to come with me
To village ghetto land?

Love's in need of love today,
Don't delay, send yours in right away,
Hate's going 'round breaking many hearts,
Stop it please, before it's gone too far.

And I'll go where I've longed to go,
So long, away from tears.

No more lying friends wanting tragic ends,
Though they do pretend,
They won't go when I go.

'Cause we are sick and tired of hearing your song,
Telling us how you are gonna change right from wrong,
'Cause if you really want to hear our views,
You haven't done nothin'.

I like to see you boogie right across the floor,
I'd like to do it to you 'til you howl for more,
I like to reggae, but you dance too fast for me,
I'd like to make love to you so you can make me scream.

And I can't go on this way,
With it stronger every day,
But being too shy to say
That I really love you.

'Where is your God?'
That's what my friends ask me,
And I say it's taken him so long
'Cause we've got so far to come.

He's a man with a plan,
Got a counterfeit dollar in his hand,
He's misstra know-it-all.

But don't you worry 'bout a thing,
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama,
'Cause I'll be standing in the side when you check it out.

I'm so darn glad he let me try it again,
'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin,
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then,
Gonna keep on trying until I reach my highest ground.
