My Kind of Girl

Brian McKnight · Superhero

When I was younger never went to far
Held my feelings and never even wanted to start
so when i met you, i didnt know
what you were gonna do with my heart

When you talk (I cling on every word you say)
when you walk (Just like a breeze on a summer day)
when you smile (the sky turns from grey to blue, thats what you do)
And your the kind of girl I think of
and your the kind of girl I dream about
my heart is telling me that I need you in my world (in my world)
cause you my kind of lady (your my kind of girl)

When I'm not with you, where ever you are
baby I'm counting the moments till I'm back in your arms
all I want is to have you here with me
every night and every day, when you talk

(I cling on every word you say)
when you walk (Just like a breeze on a summer day)
when you smile (the sky turns from grey to blue, thats what you do)
And your the kind of girl i think of
and your the kind of girl i dream about
my heart is telling me that I need you in my world (in my world)
cause you my kind of lady (your my kind of girl)

Baby girl I need you here by my side
and if your there everything will be alright
cause this is the time for us, baby be mine

And your the kind of girl I think of
and your the kind of girl I dream about
my heart is telling me that I need you in my world (in my world)
cause you my kind of lady (your my kind of girl
