I Was Made To Love Her

Written by: stevie wonder

I was born in newark,

Had a childhood sweetheart,

We were always hand in hand.

He wore hightop shoes and shirt tails,

Nip was in pig tails,

I know I loved him even then.

You know some disapproved it,

They even boohooed it,

But I told them time and time again,

You know I was made to love him,

Built my world around him

Yah! hey, hey, hey.

He's been my inspiration,

Showed appreciation

For the love I gave him through the years.

Like a sweet magnolia tree

My love blossmed tenderly,

My life grew sweeter through the years.

I know that my baby loves me,

My baby needs me,

That's why we made it through the years.

I was made to love him,

Worship and adore him,

Yes say, hey, hey, hey.

All through thick and thin

Our love just won't end,

'cause I love my baby, love my baby. ah!



My baby loves me,

My baby needs me,

And I know I ain't going nowhere.

I was just a little thang

When that love bug bit me,

I had the fever with each passing year.

If ocean tumbles,

And the whole world crumbles,

By his side I'll still be standing there.

'cause I was made to love him,

I was made to live for him say yeah!

Ah, I was made to love him,

Built my world all around him,

Say hey, hey, hey.

I love my baby

Nip ain÷ö goin? no where,

Say hey, hey, hey.

Say hay, hay, hay.

Hey, hey, hey

Oooh hey I love him uhahh

(lauren: I love him, I love him)

Y'll don' know nothin?

Built my world all around him say

Hey, hey, hey

(lauren: naa naa!)

Ooooh!

Can' cha? tell y'll

Hey, hey, hey

Been my inspiration,

Showed my inspiration

Hey, hey, hey
