What a Girl Wants

What a girl wants, what a girl needs
What a girl wants, what a girl needs

I wanna thank you for giving me time to breathe
Like a rock, you waited so patiently
While I got it together, while I figured it out
I only looked but I never touched
'Cause in my heart was a picture of us
Holdin' hands, makin' plans
And it's lucky for me, you understand

CHORUS:
What a girl wants, what a girl needs,
Whatever makes me happy sets you free
And I'm thanking you for knowing exactly
What a girl wants, what a girl needs,
Whatever keeps me in your arms
And I'm thanking you for giving it true

SPOKEN:
What I want is whatcha got,
And whatcha got is what you want

There was a time I was blind, I was so confused,
Run away just to hide it all from you
But, baby, you knew me better than I knew myself
They say if you love something, let it go
If it comes back, it's yours and that's how you know
It's for keeps, yeah, it's for sure
And you're ready and willing to give me more and

CHORUS

What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Somebody sensitive, courageous, sexy, cool like you
What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh oh, yeah!
What a girl wants, what a girl needs
You let a girl know how much you care about
And I swear you're the one who always knew
You knew, you knew, you knew, you knew

I'm thanking you for being there for me
(What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms)
Whatever keeps me in your arms is what I need

CHORUS (2x)

Oh, baby
Oh, darlin'
Thank you, thank you for giving me what I want
And what I need
