Knocks Me Off My Feet
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

Line by Line Meaning

I see us in the park
I envision us in the park together


Strolling the summer days of imaginings in my head
We're walking through the park on summer days, in my imagination


And words from our hearts
Our feelings, expressed verbally


Told only to the wind felt even without being said
Our unspoken emotions are felt and understood by the environment around us


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


But there's somethin' 'bout your love
Your love has a certain power


That makes me weak and
It weakens me


Knocks me off my feet
It overwhelms me emotionally


There's sumptin' 'bout your love
Your love has a certain quality


More and more
Increasingly


We lay beneath the stars
We're lying down together under the stars


Under a lovers tree that's seen through the eyes of my mind
In my mind, we're under a tree that symbolizes our love


I reach out for the part
I'm trying to connect with the part of me that's in you


Of me that lives in you that only our two hearts can find
Our hearts hold a connection that only we can truly understand


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


Oh but I love you, I love you, I love you
But my love for you is undeniable and infinite

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 sumptin' bout your love
That makes me weak and
Knocks me off my feet
There's supmtin' 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

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
