Lyrics

Something

[Verse 1]

Something in the way she moves

Attracts me like no other lover

Something in the way she woos me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe and how

[Verse 2]

Somewhere in her smile she knows

That I don't need no other lover

Something in her style that shows me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe and how

[Bridge]

You're asking me, will my love grow?

Girl, I don't know, I don't know

You stick around, now, it may show

I don't know, I don't know

[Verse 3]

Something in the way she knows

And all I havе to do is think of her

Something in the things shе shows me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe and how

[Bridge]

(You're asking me, will my love grow?)

(I don't know, I don't know)

(You stick around, now, it may show)

(I don't know, I don't know)

[Verse 3]

Something in the way she knows

Listen to this, all I have to do is think of her

Something in the things she shows me

I don't want to leave her now

You know I believe and how
