What a Girl Wants – Christina Aguilera

“What a Girl Wants” Lyrics

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
And I’m thanking you for being there for me
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 it’s 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, and that’s how you know
It’s for keeps, yeah, it’s for sure.”
And you’re ready and willing to give me more [than]
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 hangin’ around with the one who always knew
I’m thankin’ 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
