[Verse 1]
I was drifting from day to day
Like a child that's lost his way
In a great big world
Then a miracle happened by
When you happened into my life
And said you love me
All around me the world was cold
Then you tenderly touched my soul
With your sunshine girl

[Chorus]
And my future you gave it birth
And my living you gave it worth
Little Angie
Cause I love you, Angie girl
I love you
Yes, I do
Heaven knows my heart is true
Oh, ho, ho

[Verse 2]
When I'm feelin' my faith is gone
You're my reason for going on
Through another day
'Cause the tender times that we share
Truly show me that you care about me
Whenever life makes you cry
Just remember I'm standing by
To lead the way
And together we'll never fall

[Chorus]
Together we'll conquer all
Little Angie
Cause I love you, Angie girl
I love you
Yes, I do
Heaven knows my heart is true

'Cause I love you, Angie girl
I love you
Yes, I do
Heaven knows my heart is true
Darling, I love you

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.
