[Verse 1]
Looking in your eyes
Kind of heaven eyes
Closing both my eyes
Waiting for surprise

[Pre-Chorus 1]
To see the heaven in your eyes is not so far
'Cause I'm not afraid to try and go it
To know the love and the beauty never known before
I'll leave it up to you to show it

[Chorus]
And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Take me right away

[Verse 2]
Looking at your hands
Hands can understand
Waiting for the chance
Just to hold your hand

[Pre-Chorus 2]
A touch of rain and sunshine made the flower grow
Into a lovely smile that's blooming
And it's so clear to me that you're a dream come true
There's no way that I'll be losing

[Chorus]
And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Take me right away

[Organ solo]

[Pre-Chorus 2]
A touch of rain and sunshine made the flower grow
Into a lovely smile that's blooming
And it's so clear to me that you're my dream come true
There is no way that I'll be losing

[Outro]
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there

Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there

And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there

And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there
Golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there

And golden lady, golden lady
I'd like to go there...

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.
