What A Girl Wants

Christina Aquilera

What a girl wants, what a girl needs  
Whatever makes me happy and sets you free... 
What a girl wants, what a girl needs  
Whatever keeps me in your arms  
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  
Holding hands, making plans  
And lucky for me, you understand  
             
What a girl wants, what a girl needs  
Whatever makes me happy and 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  
             
A weaker man might have walked away 
But you had faith strong enough to move 
Over and understand 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 willing to give me more  

What a girl wants, what a girl needs  
Whatever makes me happy and 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  
             
Somebody sensitive and tough  
Somebody there when the going gets rough  
Every night he'll be giving his love 
To just one girl, one girl, one  
Somebody cool but real tender too 
Somebody, baby, just like you 
Can keep me hanging around with 
The one who always knew 
And I'm thanking you  
For being there for me  
             
What a girl wants, what a girl needs  
Whatever makes me happy and 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  
             
What a girl wants, what a girl needs  
Whatever makes me happy and 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  
             
And I'm thanking you for knowing exactly... 
And I'm thanking you for being there for me...
