"What Makes A Woman" Lyrics:
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

Is it the way we keep
The whole world turning
In a pair of heels
Yeah, that’s what makes a woman
