美國盲人天才歌手［史提夫汪達］──電子流行／放克／靈魂──［That Girl／那個女孩］

[Verse 1]

That girl thinks that shes so fine

That soon shell have my mind

That girl thinks that shes so smart

That soon shell have my heart

She thinks in no time flat

That shell be free and clear to start

With her emotional rescue of love that youll leave torn apart

That girl thinks that shes so bad

Shell change my tears to joy from sad

She says she keeps the upper hand

Cause she can please her man

She doesnt use her love to make him weak

She uses love to keep him strong

And inside me theres no room for doubt

That it wont be too long

 

[Chorus]

Before I tell her that I love her

That I want her

That my mind and soul and body needs her

Tell her that Id love to, that I want to

That I need to do all that I have to

To be in her love

 

[Bridge]

Ive been hurting for a long time

And youve been playing for a long time

You know its true

Ive been holding for a long time

And youve been running for a long time

Its time to do what we have to do

 

[Harmonica Solo]

(I’m talkin’ ‘bout that girl, that girl)

 

[Verse 2]

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 hasnt heard

But what she doesnt realize is that Ive listened to every word

 

[Chorus][x4]

 

[Outro]

That girl, that girl, that girl

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