Sensuous Whisper

Stevie Wonder

I've seen you, I saw you, I see you 
Without little notice, if any at all 
Of you knowing me watchin' you 
You walking, you talking, you smiling 
You styling in everything your body wears 
And that's not just a point of view 
They're painting, they're ranting, they're raving 
About Miss Lovely got it going on 
From head down to her toes 
And no one knows better than I know 
Cause I've been listening to the spirit of 
Your body, mind and soul 

It's a sensuous whisper 
That makes my body weak 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That's sweeter than the sweetest sweet 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes my psyche say 
Ooh we, ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

Can feel you, can smell you, can taste you 
Though my senses never had the pleasure of 
That lovely wonderment 
But I start to shaking, I shiver, to think that little sparkle in your eye 
Means you are giving me some kind of hint 
I'm ready, I'm willing, I'm able 
In fact those words are at the tip of my tongue 
Eagerly waiting for me to say 
Then you smile and whisper "how are you?" 
But when I move my lips and try to speak the words just go away 

It's a sensuous whisper 
That makes my body weak 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That's sweeter than the sweetest sweet 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes my psyche say 
Ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

It's that sensuous whisper that's got me trippin' out 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That I don't want to do without 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes me want to shout 
Ooh we, ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

I don't even care how long it takes 
As long as I have you lying next to me 
Cause to wait forever and a day 
Is a small price to pay if it's you I'm getting 
If it's you I'm getting, I'm not quitting 
And that is how I'm living 

I'm clinging, not dreaming, but scheming 
With my nose against the grind and both my eyes focused upon the prize 
I think it, I trust it, I know it 
Your love that I've longed for is gonna be mine 
Good things do come in time 
I'm right on the rhythm you're givin' 
But this is more than giving up some casual mental telepathy 
The music, the candles, the champagne and all that's needed 
Is one thing to give it authenticity 

It's a sensuous whisper 
That makes my body weak 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That's sweeter than the sweetest sweet 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes my psyche say 
Ooh wee, ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

It's that sensuous whisper 
That's got me trippin' out 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That I don't want to do without 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes me want to shout 
Ooh we, ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

It's a sensuous whisper 
That makes my body rock 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes me beg baby don't ever stop 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That always get me hot, baby 
Ooh wee, ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

It's that sensuous whisper 
That makes me feel alright 
It's that sensuous whisper 
That keep me wanting you morning, noon and every single night 
It's that sensuous whisper 
Don't want you out of my sight, baby 
Ooh we, ooh wee, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we, ooh we 

It's that sensuous whisper
