| Lyrics:Stevie Wonder Music:Stevie Wonder | |
| When was the last time | |
| That they heard you say | |
| Mother or father, I love you | |
| And when was the last time | |
| That they heard you say | |
| Daughter or son, I love you | |
| Ones you say you cherish everyday | |
| Can instantly be taken away | |
| Then you'd say I know this can't be true | |
| When you never took the time | |
| To simply tell them "I love you" | |
| When was the last time | |
| That they heard you say | |
| Sister or brother, I love you | |
| And when was the last time | |
| That they heard you say | |
| Darling or best friend, I love you | |
| The one for whom you'd give your very life | |
| Could be taken in the twinkling of an eye | |
| Through your tears you'd ask why did you go | |
| Knowing you'd didn't always show | |
| Just how much you loved them so | |
| These three words | |
| Sweet and simple | |
| These three words | |
| Short and kind | |
| These three words | |
| Always kindles | |
| An aching heart to smile inside | |
| I know a family | |
| Who hasn't a cent to their name | |
| And yet the joy and love they have between them | |
| They always claim | |
| And when one's called from life | |
| The survived mourn the lost | |
| And will never be the same | |
| Yet they rejoice | |
| In knowing they gave them their all | |
| These three words | |
| Sweet and simple | |
| These three words | |
| Short and kind | |
| These three words | |
| Always kindles | |
| (repeat and fade) |
