Stevie Wonder Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see us in the park
Strolling the summer days of imaginings in my head
And words from our hearts
Told only to the wind felt even without being said
I don't want to bore you with my trouble
But there's somethin 'bout your love
That makes me weak and
Knocks me off my feet
There's sumptin 'bout your love
That makes me weak and
Knocks me off my feet
Knocks me off my feet

I don't want to bore you with it
Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
I don't want to bore you with it
Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
More and more
We lay beneath the stars
Under a lovers tree that's seen through the eyes of my mind
I reach out for the part
Of me that lives in you that only our two hearts can find
But I don't want to bore you with my trouble
But there's sumptin 'bout your love
That makes me weak and
Knocks me off my feet
But there's sumptin 'bout your love
That makes me weak and
Knocks me off my feet

I don't want to bore you with it
Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
I don't want to bore you with it
Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
I don't want to bore you with it
Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
Darling I don't want to bore you with it
Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
I don't' want to bore you with it




Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
Darling I don't want to bore you with it

I see us in the park
Imagining spending summer days with you in the park


Strolling the summer days of imaginings in my head
Daydreaming about spending summer days with you


And words from our hearts
The words we feel that come from our hearts


Told only to the wind felt even without being said
Our unspoken feelings understood and carried away by the wind


I don't want to bore you with my trouble
I don't want to burden you with my issues


But there's somethin 'bout your love

Your love has a certain quality to it

We lay beneath the stars
Laying together under the stars


Under a lovers tree that's seen through the eyes of my mind
A tree that symbolizes our love in my imagination

I seek out the part


Of me that lives in you that only our two hearts can find
The part of me that only you can unlock with your love for me


Darling I don't want to bore you with it
My love for you is so strong that I don't want to burden you with it
