What a girl wants, what a girl needs
What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Yeah, c'mon!
I wanna thank you for givin' 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
Holdin' hands, makin' 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 thankin' you for knowin' exactly
What a girl wants, what a girl needs
Whatever keeps me in your arms
And I'm thankin' you for givin' it to me
What I want, is whatcha got
And whatcha got, is what I want
There was a time I was blind, I was so confused (yeah, yeah)
Ran away just to hide it all from you
But baby, you knew me better than I knew myself
They say if you love somethin', let it go (let it go)

You let a girl know how much ya care about her, I swear
You're the one who always knew
You knew, you knew, you knew, you knew
