Never needed a wishing well to make my happy with my baby
Never needed a magic spell to start me thinking someday maybe
I'll build a house of gingerbread someday
And bring my sugar cookie home to stay 'cause

Ain't no lovin like my baby's
Ain't no lovin like my baby's love
Ain't no lovin like my baby's

She's the girl that I am dreaming of
Oh, my Angel Love can't stop dreaming of
How it's gonna be
It's gonna be for Angel Love and me
Goin' down to the wishing well
Cause that's where I'm gonna meet my baby

Mr Moon mixed a magic spell
He's telling me that I better hurry
To find the girl beneath the willow tree
And run and take my baby home with me 'cause

Ain't no lovin like my baby's
Ain't no lovin like my sugar's love
Ain't no lovin like my baby's

She's the girl that I am dreaming of
Ain't no love (ain't no love)
Ain't no love (ain't no love)
Ain't no love (hey) Hoo, hooo
Ain't no love (ain't no love)
Ain't no love (ain't no love)

Never, never, never, never, never ha, ha
[repeat and fade]

Despite losing his sight at a young age, Stevie Wonder went on to become one of the most celebrated soul songwriters of the late 20th century. His songs manage to both innovate and catch the ears of listeners of all dispositions, whilst also being big chart hits.

Incredibly influential amongst musical circles, his voice rendered modern British soul-songwriter James Morrison close to tears the first time he heard it.
