what makes a woman

is it the way i talk sweet

the way my skin is soft?

or how i can be a bitch

and make you keep your fingers crossed?

is it the way that i praise you

the way that i please you?

or how fast i change my mind

and get scared that i might leave you?

could spend your whole life but you couldn't

describe what makes a woman

she's always been a perfect mystery

could spend your whole life but you couldn't

describe what makes a woman

and that's what makes a woman to me

is it the way i cut my hair and put no makeup on?

i feel most beautiful doing what the fuck i want

is it that my intuition is never really off?

i need tissues for my issues and band-aids for my heart

could spend your whole life but you couldn't

describe what makes a woman

she's always been a perfect mystery

could spend your whole life but you couldn't

describe what makes a woman

and that's what makes a woman to me

that's what makes a woman to me

oh

yeah

yeah-yeah

is it the way we keep the whole world turning?

in a pair of heels

yeah

that's what makes a woman
