That girl

Stevie Wonder

That girl thinks that she's so fine

That soon she'll have my mind

That girl thinks that she's so smart

That soon she'll have my heart

She thinks in no time flat

That she'll be free and clear to start

With her emotional rescue of love that you'll leave turn apart

That girl thinks that she's so bad

She'll change my tears from joy to sad

She says she keeps the upper hand

'Cause she can please her man

She doesn't use her love to make him weak

She uses love to keep him strong

And inside me there's no room for doubt

That it won't be too long

Before I tell her that I love her

That I want her

That my mind, soul and body needs her

Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to

That I need to do all that I have to

To be in her love

I've been hurting for a long time

And you've been playing for a long time

You know it's true

I've been holding for a long time

And you've been running for a long time

It's time to do what we have to do

That girl, That girl

That girl knows every single man

Would ask her for her hand

But she says her love is much too deep

For them to understand

She says her love has been crying out

But her lover hasn't heard

But what she doesn't realize is that I've listened to every word

That's why I know I'll tell that I love her

That I want her

That my mind, soul and body needs her

Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to

That I need to do all that I have to

To be in her love

Tell her I love her

That I want her

That my mind and soul and body needs her

Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to

That I need to do all that I have to

To be in her love

That I love her

That I want her

That my mind and soul and body needs her

Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to

That I need to do all that I have to...

Tell her that I love her

That I want her

That my mind and soul and body needs her

Tell her that I'd love to, that I want to

That I need to do all that I have to

To be in her...

That girl, that girl, that girl,

Oh, That girl, that girl, that girl, that girl...
