[Verse 1]
Purple rain drops, spotted flowers
I've daydreamed for hours
Since I met you, I can't forget you
Oh, what am I gonna do?
I see funny things, many strange things
I think that you've changed things
Since i met you, I can't live without you
What am i gonna do?

[Bridge]
I just can't tell you how I feel
I just can't find the words
To share a love like ours
Takes more than nouns and verbs

[Verse 2]
I hear bells ring, I hear angels sing
I know just what that means
Since I met you (Met you), I just can't forget you (Can't forget you)
Oh, what am I gonna do?
Ooh, what am I gonna do?

[Outro]
Purple rain drops (Rain drops), spotted flowers (Flowers)
I've daydreamed for hours and hours and hours and hours
Purple raindrops (Rain drops), spotted flowers (Flowers)
And let me tell ya I've daydreamed for hours and hours and hours and hours

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.
