Ribbon In The Sky
Stevie Wonder · Natural Wonder (Disc 1)
that a star would guide you my way
to share with me this special day
where a ribbon's in the sky for our love
if allowed may I touch your hand
and if pleased may I once again
so that you too will understand
there's a ribbon in the sky for our love
do... do...
do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do
hmm hmm
this is not a coincidence
and far more than a lucky chance
but what is that was always meant
is our ribbon in the sky for our love,love
we can't lose with God on our side
we'll find strength in each tear we cry
from now on it will be you and I
and our ribbon in the sky
ribbon in the sky
a ribbon in the sky for our love
do... do...
do do do do do
hmm hmm...
(musical break)
there's a ribbon in the sky for our love
