[Verse 1: Stevie Wonder + Dionne Warwick]
Every time I think our love is drifting apart
Something always throws it back together
And every time I think I've found someone new for my heart
After one kiss my heart tells me never

[Chorus: Stevie Wonder + Dionne Warwick]
Ooh, oh, everyone has got a weakness in life
Girl, you just happen to be mine
Oh, everyone has got a certain weakness in life
Your love just happens to be mine

[Verse 2: Stevie Wonder + Dionne Warwick]
Every time I think your love has no more to give
You do something more to take me higher
And every time I think that for someone else I could live
I'd be living love out as a liar

[Chorus: Stevie Wonder + Dionne Warwick + Both]
Oh, everyone has got a weakness in life
Boy, you just happen to be mine
Oh, everyone has got a certain weakness in life
Your love just happens to be mine

[Bridge: Stevie Wonder + Dionne Warwick]
We keep thinking that our love won't last beyond tomorrow
But our hearts say we're gonna stay in love this way

[Chorus: Stevie Wonder + Dionne Warwick + Both]
Oh, everyone has got a weakness in life
Girl, you just happen to be mine
Oh, everyone has got a certain weakness in life
Your love just happens to be mine
Say it again
Everyone has got a weakness in life
Boy, you just happen to be mine
Everyone has got a certain weakness in life
Your love just happens to be mine

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.
