[Intro]
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
I don't know why I love you
But I love you

[Verse]
Always treat me like a fool
Kick me when I'm down that's your rule
I don't know why I love you
But I love you ooooooh
Oh you never stop your
Cheating ways with another guy
You laugh in my face
Lord how long must I be disgraced
Because I love you
Oh baby, baby, baby
I don't know why I love you
I don't know
You and me baby, oh
I don't know why I love you baby
But I love you baby
Oh darling, darling, darling
You throw my heart down in the dirt
You made me crawl on
This cold black earth, baby
No I never, I never knew
How much love could hurt
Until I loved you baby
Till I loved you baby, baby

[Outro]
Oh baby, I can't stop
I can't stop crying can't you see
Here I'm pleading on my knees
I'm on my knees
Won't you help me, help me please
Because I love you, I love you baby, whoahhh

Sure enough, baby, yeah
I don't know, you don't know
We don't know none of us
Can't do nothing about it
I don't know baby, I don't know aaaahhhh
Oh baby, I don't know, I don't know
You don't know nothing about it
Nobody can do nothing about it

Stevie Wonder

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.
