What a Girl Wants

What a girl wants, what a girl needs

(Yeah, c’mon)

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 (yeah, yeah)
I only looked but I never touched
‘Cause in my heart was a picture of us
Holding hands, making plans
And it’s lucky for me you understand

What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Whatever makes me happy sets you free
And I’m thanking you for knowin’ exactly
What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
And I’m thanking you for givin’ it to me

What I want is what you got
And what you got is what I want

There was a time I was blind, I was so confused
I’d run away just to hide it all from you
But baby, you knew me better, mmm
Than I knew myself, luv

You knew, you knew, you knew, you knew

Oh, I’m thanking you for bein’ there for me
What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
