What Is It About Her?

What is it about her

That makes me want her?

What is it about her

That turns me pale?

Something in her smile

Something that I'll never understand

Her wild abandon

What is it about her

That parts the waters?

What is it about her

That hoists the sail?

Something in her hair

Instructing where to touch

Why do I need her so much?

This woman makes me cry

This woman makes me burn

This woman's eye can cut me to the core

The hatred that I see

Has been reserved for me

Yet I want more

And more

And more

And what is it about her

That pulls me closer?

What is it about her

That tips the scale?

This girl is all I have

So soft, so fair, so fine

And she's forever mine

This woman builds me up

This woman tears me down

This woman speaks and I can break apart

Now comes another man

Pretending he can win her heart

Well, let him start

What is it about her

So slight, so secret?

Something in the way she catches light

Should I hold my own

Or be alone

Tonight?

What is it about her?

That jumbles feelings inside?

What is it about her

That mixes passion with pride?

Could I live without her

And let her go?

How loud must I scream

No!
