What A Girl Wants Lyrics - Christina Aguilera

Artist: Christina Aguilera

Album: Christina Aguilera (1999)

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

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 being there for me

Yeah Yeah

A weaker man might have walked away

But you had faith

Strong enough to move over and give me space

While I got it together

While I figured it out

They say if you love something let it go

If it comes back it's yours

That's how you know

It's for keeps, yeah, it's for sure

And you're ready and willin'

To give me more than

What a girl wants

What a girl needs

Whatever makes me happy sets you free

And I'm thanking you for giving it to me

What a girl wants

What a girl needs

Whatever keeps me in your arms

And I'm thanking you for being there for me

Yeah Yeah

A girl needs somebody sensitive but tough

Somebody there when the goin' gets rough

Every night he'll be giving his love

To just one girl

Somebody cool but real tender too

Somebody, baby, just like you

Can keep me hangin' around

With the one who always knew

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 being there for me

Yeah Yeah
