The Girl Lyrics by Musiq Soulchild

Life on Earth

2016

[Verse 1]
I've been looking for my missing piece
And waiting to meet her, now that I see her, I feel complete
And I ain't gonna lie, I've been around in a broken heart or a few
Didn't mean to make them cry
I was just searching to find, to find you
Now that you're here, you can slow down
I got you, so you ain't gotta do this by yourself
[Chorus]
You can be a superhero
You don't need to save the world
I know you can do it all
But you don't have to
Cause if you're doing everything
Tell me how does that leave room for me
Guys just want to be the guy
With the girl who wants to be his girl, yeah
[Verse 2]
Take off all them hats (you don't need them no more)
Drop off all them bags (why you holding them for)
Remember you've got my arms now
Let me carry all of that (so let me girl)
I ain't gonna ever be able to read your mind
But tell me what you expect of me
And I promise I'll do my best to try, I'll try for you
No matter how hard things may get
I got you, so you ain't gotta do this by yourself
[Chorus]
You can be a superhero
You don't need to save the world
I know you can do it all
But you don't have to
Cause if you're doing everything
Tell me how does that leave room for me
Guys just want to be the guy
With the girl who wants to be his girl, yeah
[Bridge]
Hey, tell me what you really want
Tell us what we really need
And we can talk about
Trying to figure out how to get to where we're supposed to be
[Outro]
(So just tell me what you really want
Tell us what we really need)
I don't think I'm asking for too much, I just
(And we can talk about)
Want love and
(Trying to figure out)
Somebody who is just gonna be there
(How to get to where we're supposed to be)
Just don't leave
(So just tell me what you really want)
Love me, because I love you
I love you
I love you
