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
