Stevie Wonder - Gotta Have You Lyrics






Never been too much for watching
Cause there's too many things to view
And when eyes begin to wander
They more than likely never get through
But beyond my own temptation
I'm enticed by what I see
And I won't feel satisfaction
Until she's where I want her to be

I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
I gotta make you my reality
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Come on girl, make you my reality

Never been too much for talking
Cause there's too many things to say
And by the time that I start speaking
The right moment has slipped away
But I must break this old tradition
And try to muster up the words
And though someone else may have said them
I'll say them in way you've never heard

I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
I've gotta make you my reality
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Come on girl, make you my reality
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
[Repeat]

Never been too much for touching
Cause there's too many things to feel
Plus there's too much disappointment
When you find out those feelings ain't real
But here's a time when inner senses
Are gonna have to shine the light
Cause I have overly committed
Myself in thinking that you're alright

I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
I gotta make you my reality
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you for me
You are a sight for sore eyes to see
Come on girl, make you my reality
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
Gotta be, gotta be, gotta be reality, baby
[Repeat]

    Real effing music

  12. T.... S....

    Stevie need to be mentioned in the same breath as Prince and MJ

    T.... S....

    The Science
    For you r
    To say that is an insult to the "12 Year Old Genius" and the Purple One" with all due respect, MJ was a bad mofo, but his musical genius doesn't come close to the other 2. Prince wrote, composed, and played 10+ instruments by 16 (he wanted to produce himself at 16, but the record companies wouldn't allow that). Stevie could play harmonica, piano, bass, and drums by age 12, and was writing and composing soon thereafter. Sorry, but I have no recollection MJ playing any instruments, and he only started composing well into adulthood.

    T.... S....

    Stevie Wonder musically is much greater than both Prince and MJ actually..

    T.... S....

    He was more of an entertainer. Michael wasn’t as known for instruments but he could play piano and he did several percussion instruments in the History album among others. But lets not compare, please.

    T.... S....

    Joey Tastic
    Thank you. As a COMPLETE artist, MJ couldn't wash Stevie's or Prince's draws.

    T.... S....

    MJ was an entertainer but Prince and Stevie Wonder were both one man bands

  13. L.... ....

    Thanks to DJ Stef E for breaking this cut and entire album down! Miss the days when we used to debate on music, artist and bands! Peace!

    Syl Ander

    Getting

  31. s.... ....

    Nostalgic

  32. a.... w....

    Its shew-nuff funky!!!

  33. Z.... M....

    About this MUSIC (and a whole soundtrack): What a dumb-ass I was to consider it as "boring", a "creative downfall for SW", whatever ... back then in 90's; this is a true masterpiece! After more than 2 decades - it's still fresh and awesome stuff. Many of the contemporary artists can only dream of achieving such level, that's for sure.

    Z.... M....

    Absolutely agree! This album is off the hook!

  34. n.... ....

    One of the last Geniuses left.

    n.... ....

    nexxt74 So True!!!

    n.... ....

    What if he wasn't? What if there were more geniuses like him? That would be excellent.

    n.... ....

    Check out Jacob Collier. There is hope ❤️

  35. S.... M....

    And they recorded We Are the World.

  36. c.... ....

    With interracial dating so common today, this song was 20 years ahead of it's time...just shows how great Stevie really is...

    c.... ....

    charlesawilliams i cant stop listening to him since 1985

    c.... ....

    charlesawilliams, actually you should be crediting Spike Lee before Stevie.

    c.... ....

    Mississippi Red Credit Spike for Stevie’s music??? Negative

    c.... ....

    AMEN!!!

    c.... ....

    @Syl Ander
    Read the original comment. I was talking about the movie Einstein.

  37. l.... ....

    Unfortunately, this tune does not get the consideration as a New Jack Swing era R&B
    classic that it is worthy of.

  38. J.... P....

    if interracial dating could be glamourized in real life like in this song

    J.... P....

    It is in some sects, and for those who have an issue with it, ….well, let them have their cake of misery and bigotry, let 'em eat it, and may they gag on it.

  39. J.... P....

    i like the whole jist of this song period!

  40. R.... K....

    Bomb Stevie is genius

  41. R.... ....

    @yyttroll It is possible as they were very good friends but not sure. :)

  42. S.... T....

    Love the lyrics, love the rhythm (beat) and his voice. This is the perfect song!

  43. T.... D....

    What's not to like about this track from a kick ass controversial movie? Good looking out on the post!!!

  44. b.... ....

    Hey johnnie this was a nice fix this Monday Morning, Im actually working on a presentation for one of our major clients right now, and this album is just soooo perfect bro!
    Thank you!
