Stevie Wonder - Black Orchid Lyrics
A flake of snow within a storm
A new way waiting to be born
In a world with need of change
A touch of love in fear of hate
A rushing wind that's asked to wait
A pearl of wisdom entrapped by poverty
She gives love with purity
Filling minds with hopeful schemes
To build worlds enhanced by peace
Draped in sparkling morning dew
She expresses life anew
From the earth beneath her feet
She is a flower that grows
In love ability
Black Orchid, Black Orchid
Why did they make you begin
When they know in time you'll find your truth
before your cycle ends
Black Orchid, Black Orchid
Why are you crying their fears
When the true reflection of you that they see
Is love besieged by years
She has touched the farthest star
Her beauty speaks of what we are
And her freedom makes us free
Her now is in eternity
Infinite to all that see
And her dreams have been achieved
Now there is a sound of laughter
Nature signs out her name
For the world to know her fame
Black Orchid, Black Orchid
Why did they criticize
When they knew your love could cast its spell and
consecrate their eyes
Black Orchid, Black Orchid
Why do you linger in space
When you know in every heart that beats
You hold a special place
When you know in every heart that beats
You hold a special place

Stevie Wonder Black Orchid Comments
I sang this for my aunt’s funeral.
Stevie Wonder's little-known song but it's very beautiful.
Best album hands down! ✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾
One of the greatest albums of all time. Incredibly, several of the greatest albums of all time were released in 1979, and they were all double albums! Observe: Stevie Wonder's Journey through the Secret Life of Plants (1979, double album); Fleetwood Mac, Tusk (1979, double album);
Pink Floyd, The Wall (1979, double album);
The Clash, London Calling (1979, double album).
Safe to say that 1979 was the greatest year in rock/pop history.
1979 was a great year for music
Classic ❤️
