The song was originally written about Wonder’s girlfriend while he was at the Michigan School for the Blind in Lansing, Michigan, and had the title “Oh My Marsha”. After they broke up, the lyrics and title were altered to the more general “My Cherie Amour”.
[Chorus]
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
[Verse 1]
My cherie amour, lovely as a summer day
My cherie amour, distant as the Milky Way
My cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine
[Verse 2]
In a cafe or sometimes on a crowded street
I've been near you, but you never noticed me
My cherie amour, won't you tell me how could you ignore
That behind that little smile I wore
How I wish that you were mine
[Chorus]
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Maybe someday, you'll see my face among the crowd
Maybe someday, I'll share your little distant cloud
Oh, cherie amour, pretty little one that I adore
You're the only girl my heart beats for
How I wish that you were mine
[Chorus]
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
La-la, la, la, la, la
