Andrew Lippa, Julia Murney, Brian D’Arcy James - What Is It About Her lyrics

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?
I know it's wrong i know he's rough

I don't know what to do
But we've been through enough

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? Oooh
That way he's always there

His strange and silent stare

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? Who's wrong?
Who's right? I've never known
Now we fall
We fight what is it about him?
So coarse, so queer what is it about him
That holds me here?

Could I live without her and let her go?
How loud must I scream no!
